A new WhatsApp update gives group admin the ability to block certain people from sending messages in the group chats.

WhatsApp announced a new control for group administrators to limit activity so that they are the only member of the group who can send messages. WhatsApp groups can include up to 256 participants.

The approach could greatly alter what its like to be a part of a WhatsApp group, changing them from a place for conversation to a place for receiving announcements, which will work well for a school group, political organization, or professional group.

With the new WhatsApp update, you'll be able to very easily keep conversations on topic simply by limiting the active participants.

The new feature is the most recent way Facebook owned WhatsApp has given administrators more control over groups.

Last month, WhatsApp launched a number of new features, including group descriptions that can be set by admins only and which detail the purpose, guidelines, or topics of discussion for a group, and a new policy that group creators can not be kicked out of a group they started.

The launch of new features came days after the company told the New York Times it planned to give group administrators more control.
