WhatsApp making new change in Communities tab interface

Meta-owned platform WhatsApp is rolling out a redesigned interface for the Communities tab which will make it convenient for users to navigate through Communities and access the group chats within them.

WhatsApp plans to make the interface cleaner and easier to understand for users with the help of this update as well as allowing them to quickly locate the Community or group chat they are looking for, reported WABetaInfo.

Thanks to a more compact layout that reduces the amount of space each section occupies on the screen, this update became possible.

As each section took up a large portion of the screen, users had to scroll through a lengthy list to find a specific Community or group chat earlier.

By displaying more Communities on a single page, the updated design minimises this and helps users reach their destination with fewer scrolls.

Moreover, by giving users a quick view of the latest activity in each Community, every section will still show recent group chats.

It is also worth noting that in order to make navigation even more convenient, the Meta app has introduced a dedicated button next to each Community name that allows users to view all the group chats linked to that Community in a single tap.

The new Communities tab update is available to some beta testers as of now and it is rolling out to even more people over the coming days.
