How to make a WhatsApp chat where only the admin can write - briefly?

To create a WhatsApp chat where only the admin can write, you need to use the "Broadcast List" feature. This allows the admin to send messages to a group of contacts without them being able to reply or see each other's numbers.

How to make a WhatsApp chat where only the admin can write - in detail?

To create a WhatsApp chat where only the admin can send messages, you will need to use the "Broadcast List" feature. Here's a detailed step-by-step guide on how to set this up:

  1. Create a Broadcast List:

    • Open WhatsApp and go to the "Chats" tab.
    • Tap on the three dots in the top right corner to open the menu.
    • Select "New Broadcast."
  2. Add Recipients:

    • Choose the contacts you want to include in this broadcast list. These will be the recipients who can only receive messages and not send any.
    • Tap on the checkmark to confirm your selection.
  3. Name the Broadcast List:

    • After adding the contacts, you will be prompted to name the broadcast list. Give it a recognizable name so that you can easily identify it later.
  4. Send Messages:

    • Now, whenever you type and send a message in this broadcast list, all recipients will receive it as if they were part of a group chat. However, unlike a group chat, only the admin (you) can send messages. The recipients cannot respond or send messages back to the group.
  5. Manage Recipients:

    • If you need to add or remove recipients from the broadcast list, you can do so by tapping on the broadcast list name at the top of the chat screen and selecting "Edit List." From there, you can add new contacts or remove existing ones.
  6. Limitations:

    • It's important to note that while this method ensures only the admin can send messages, it does not prevent recipients from leaving the broadcast list. If a recipient leaves, they will no longer receive any messages sent to the broadcast list.

By following these steps, you can effectively create a WhatsApp chat where only the admin has the ability to write and send messages, ensuring one-way communication with your contacts.
