WhatsApp, which remains the most popular among instant messaging applications, is constantly testing new features to improve the experience of its users. For example, yesterday we saw that there would be a reminder function for messages.

Now, a feature has emerged that closely affects groups on the platform. This feature, spotted by WABetaInfo in the latest beta version of the Android version of the application, is a online person indicator.

You can see how many people are online

We can understand what function the function will have from the screenshot taken by WABetaInfo. At the top, where the names of the group participants normally appear, ‘5 people onlineAn expression like ” is displayed. This is also in the group You will be shown how many people are currently online. It means.

We can say that this feature will be very useful. While we were talking in a group, we had to go to those people one by one and use the chat to see who was online. However, the new feature will eliminate this completely and allow you to easily see how many people will be online. We can probably also see who is online. Of course in privacy settings It does not apply to those who have disabled their online appearance. let’s point it out.

The new feature is now in test phase. There is no information on when it will arrive, but we can guess that it will be soon.
