WhatsApp for Android brings back Muted Updates and Channel Polls in latest beta updates،
WhatsApp, one of the most popular instant messaging apps in the world, is constantly rolling out new features and updates with the aim of improving user experience. In the last week alone, the app’s developers have released two new beta updates to Android that introduce some cool features, including the return of muted updates and the ability to create and share updates. surveys within channels.
As reported
WaBetaInfo, WhatsApp has brought back Muted updates in version v2.23.24.11 of the Android beta app, which had disappeared from the main Updates tab following the arrival of the channels. Previously, users could still access disabled updates by tapping the three-dot menu in the Updates tab, but this wasn’t as convenient as viewing them directly in the main tab.
A little after, v2.23.24.12 is released, which introduces the ability to create and share polls within channels. This feature is similar to the polls feature already available in individual and group chats, but with a few key differences.

To prevent spam and ensure survey results are accurate, channel features are limited to one choice per user. Additionally, to protect privacy, channel polls are also anonymous, meaning no one can see who voted for what. The ability to create and share polls within channels is a useful new feature that can be used for a variety of purposes, such as collecting feedback from community members or running competitions and giveaways. Likewise, the return of muted updates is a welcome change for users who prefer to keep their status updates muted. With this feature, users can easily view all their disabled status updates in one place without having to navigate through multiple menus.
Unfortunately, as these two features are currently only appearing for a limited number of users using the beta app and the WhatsApp beta program is currently – and almost always – full to capacity, it could take a little until which we then saw both displayed. on the stable public application.
