Sharing a group link on WhatsApp makes it easy to invite multiple people to join a group for social gatherings, work projects, or community activities. Here’s a simple guide on how to do it:
Create a New Group
- Open WhatsApp and go to the Chats tab.
- Tap on the “New chat” icon and select “New group.”
- Add participants, choose a group name, and set a group photo.
Access Group Info
- Open the group chat you just created.
- Tap on the group name at the top of the chat to access the group info screen.
Generate and Share the Group Link
- Scroll down in the group info screen and tap on “Invite via link.”
- Tap on “Invite to group via link” to generate a unique invite link.
Sharing Options
- Copy Link: Tap “Copy link” to copy the invite link to your clipboard. Paste it into any conversation or platform where you want to share it.
- Share Link Directly: Tap “Share link” to directly share the invite link via WhatsApp to your contacts or other groups.
- QR Code: Tap “QR code” to generate a QR code for the group invite link. Others can scan this QR code to join the group.
Manage Group Link Settings
- Customize Invitations: In the “Invite via link” section, tap on “Group settings” to decide whether “Only admins” or “All participants” can invite others using the group link.
- Reset the Link: If needed, tap “Reset link” in the group info screen to invalidate the current link and generate a new one. This is useful for security or privacy reasons.
Manage Group Members
As people join the group via the link, you’ll receive notifications. You can manage group members and their permissions from the group info screen.
Sharing a group link on WhatsApp is a convenient way to invite people to join a group without having to add them individually.
