Meta on September 13 launched WhatsApp Channels in India and over 150 countries to deliver a private way to receive updates.

WhatsApp Channels are a one-way broadcast tool and deliver a private way to receive updates from people and organizations that matter to you, right within WhatsApp.

With Channels, WhatsApps goal is to build the most private broadcast service available. Channels are separate from chats, and who you choose to follow is not visible to other followers.

Channels can be found in a new tab called Updates - where youll find the Status and channels you choose to follow. (ANI)
