How to become an admin of someone else's WhatsApp group - briefly?
To become an admin of someone else's WhatsApp group, you must first be added as a member by the current admin or another member with permissions. Once you are in the group, the existing admin can promote you to an admin role through the group settings.
How to become an admin of someone else's WhatsApp group - in detail?
To become an admin of someone else's WhatsApp group, follow these detailed steps:
- Invitation: The current admin of the group must invite you to join. This is a crucial first step as only invited members can be promoted to admins. Once invited, accept the invitation and join the group.
- Group Settings: After joining, navigate to the group settings. Tap on the group name at the top of the chat screen to access this menu.
- Group Participants: In the group info section, scroll down to see the list of participants. You should find your name among them.
- Promote Admin: Next to your name, you'll see an option that says 'Promote to Admin'. Tap on this option.
- Confirmation: A confirmation dialog will appear asking if you want to make the selected participant an admin. Confirm your choice by tapping on 'OK' or 'Yes'.
- Admin Privileges: Once promoted, you'll have admin privileges, which include adding new participants, removing members, and changing the group info (subject, icon, description).
Remember, only the current admins of a WhatsApp group can promote new admins. If you are not an admin yet and want to become one, you must ask an existing admin to invite you and then follow the steps outlined above.
Additionally, there is no limit to the number of admins in a group. However, it's important to note that all admins have equal privileges, and removing someone from the admin position requires another admin's action.
Lastly, always use your admin powers responsibly to maintain a positive and productive environment within the group.
