How to create a WhatsApp group where only the admin can write - briefly?

To create a WhatsApp group where only the admin can write, use the "Broadcast List" feature instead of a traditional group. This allows the admin to send messages to all participants without enabling them to respond.

How to create a WhatsApp group where only the admin can write - in detail?

To create a WhatsApp group where only the admin can write, you need to follow these detailed steps:

  1. Create the Group:

    • Open WhatsApp and go to the "Chats" tab.
    • Tap on the three dots (⋮) in the top right corner to access the menu.
    • Select "New Group."

  2. Add Participants:

    • Choose the contacts you want to add to the group by tapping on their names.
    • Once all desired participants are selected, tap the green checkmark (✓) at the bottom right corner to create the group.

  3. Set Group Subject and Icon:

    • After creating the group, you will be prompted to set a group subject (name) and icon (profile picture). Enter the name and choose an image as desired.

  4. Mute the Group:

    • To prevent participants from sending messages, you need to mute the group. Tap on the group's name at the top of the chat screen.
    • Select "Group Info."
    • Scroll down and tap on "Mute."
    • Choose "Always" to permanently mute the group. This will prevent all participants except admins from sending messages.

  5. Add More Admins (Optional):

    • If you want other people to have admin privileges, go back to "Group Info."
    • Tap on "Add Participant" and select the contacts you wish to make admins.
    • After adding them, tap on each name to assign them as admins by selecting "Make Admin."

  6. Revoke Message Sending Privileges:

    • Muting the group alone might not be sufficient in some cases. To ensure that only admins can send messages, you need to manually remove message-sending privileges for regular participants.
    • Go to "Group Info" and tap on each participant's name.
    • Select "Remove from Group." This will remove the participant but keep them in your contacts list.

  7. Monitor and Control:

    • Regularly monitor the group to ensure that only admins are sending messages.
    • If necessary, you can add or remove participants and admins as needed.

By following these steps, you can create a WhatsApp group where only the admin(s) have the privilege to write and send messages, maintaining control over the communication flow within the group.
