JAKARTA - Around last November, WhatsApp has launched a new Community feature on its platform, allowing users to connect with each other in a group.

Although almost the same as the group feature on WhatsApp, it turns out that Communities have differences with groups. If you want to know the difference, VOI has summarized it here.

Now, we will discuss how to disable Communities on WhatsApp, and what will happen if you disable them. If curious, continue reading this article.

Once you disable the Community, all the groups in it will be disconnected and the Community itself will no longer appear on your Community list.

The announcement group (where the admin can reach members in various groups) will also be closed.

However, individual groups will not be affected and can still be accessed normally even after the Community is deactivated.

You can't cancel deactivation after completion. However, if later you want to reactivate Community, you can always create a new Community again with the same name and description.
