Through WhatsApp Channels, which are a one-way broadcast tool, netizens can receive updates from people and organizations while such messages are delivered privately.


"Updates appear in a separate tab of the app, away from your personal chats and calls. While some features might feel familiar to WhatsApp chats, channel updates are a one-way broadcast rather than a conversation. Followers can’t reply directly to updates or send messages to channel admins. Instead they can show their interest in a channel’s content by voting on polls or adding emoji reactions to channel updates," says WhatsApp.
