How to Add Groups to Community
Once your community is created, it is time to link groups.
To add groups to a community, you must be the admin of the community. Here is how:

- Select from existing groups you already admin
- OR Create a new group for the community
If you are not the admin, you can still request the admin to give approval to group in the community.

Benefits of WhatsApp Communities
To be honest, the community feature is one of the best thing in Whatsapp. Before communities, we used to manage multiple groups for teams or departments of one organization. And had to forward one message to different groups so that everyone knows it. But Now, with WhatsApp Communities, it is so much easier to keep everything in one place and focused.
- All groups under one name
Example: An office community can include HR, Marketing, Finance, and IT all inside one company community. - Announcement Channel for Everyone
Admins can send a message that reaches every group in the community. Perfect for urgent news or updates. - No Limit on Groups or Admins
You can add as many groups and admins as you want. - Easy to Manage Roles
Only admins control the community and its settings. Members just get what they need. - Stay Organized
Instead of having 10 random groups, have one community with everything properly linked.
Who Should Use It?
Communities can be use for any purpose but they are best for:
- Schools and Universities
- Offices and Companies
- Freelance Teams
- Local Communities
- Gaming Squads
- Event Planners
