WhatsApp is experimenting with a new feature that lets users see which contacts have left a group chat. The information was reported by the WABetaInfo portal, which tracks beta versions of the messaging app.
In one of the most recent iOS beta builds, a new section appeared at the end of the group member list. This section lists people who exited the group within the last 60 days. The developers indicate that the option will be visible not only to the chat administrator but also to every participant in the conversation, giving everyone a clearer sense of group activity and membership changes.
The ability to view former group members has already begun rolling out selectively to some beta testers. There is no official timeline yet for when this feature will reach the standard, stable versions of WhatsApp, and WhatsApp has not confirmed a broad release date.
Recent reports also note that Telegram is testing a different feature, allowing users to send multiple animated emoticons within a single message. This development was mentioned by Socialbites.ca and reflects the ongoing experimentation across major messaging platforms aimed at enhancing user expression and engagement.
