A dedicated button next to each Community allows users to view all linked group chats instantly. Additionally, users can now quickly glimpse recent activity within each Community, ensuring seamless access.

WhatsApp, a Meta-owned instant messaging platfrom has introduced a revamped interface for its Communities tab, which aims at simplifying navigation and improvizing usability. The update further focuses on making it easier for the users to access Communities and their associated group chats.

Cleaner, compact design
