WhatsApp is once again coming with a new function.
Users of the messenger service can look forward to a special transfer function.
That is how it goes.
Kassel – In its latest beta update, WhatsApp has hinted at a new, innovative function.
The popular messenger service, which is used by a large number of people worldwide, is talking about a feature still in development that will allow channel owners to transfer both their administrative rights and their responsibilities to another administrator.
WhatsApp is coming up with a big innovation – users of the messenger service will soon be able to transfer their accounts without any problems
As chip.de
and the WhatsApp blog
WABEtaInfo
report, among others
, this would represent a big step for WhatsApp users.
This primarily refers to those people who manage several channels - or plan to pass them on to a successor.

Given the fast-moving, digital world, flexibility in the management of digital content is a significant factor.
The new function mentioned should make it possible to pass on channels to people who are trustworthy without too much effort and, above all, securely.
This should also apply if people have their own WhatsApp number in their contact list - which is easy to find out.
How WhatsApp users can use the new “People Nearby” function
But how is it possible for WhatsApp users to access the function offered as “People Nearby”?
The procedure here is comparatively simple.
The current owner of one or more channels must first open the channel information area on WhatsApp.
Then the “Transfer Channel Ownership” option is selected.
Below the owner can select another admin from the list of his channel members.
The corresponding rights for the respective WhatsApp channel are then transferred to this.
It should also be noted that the “People Nearby” function is still under development.
However, the anticipation in the WhatsApp community continues to be great.
Because the advantages of the new function on WhatsApp are obvious.
The new WhatsApp function “People Nearby” brings with it these advantages
Without loss of data volume: the data to be transmitted is transferred directly from one WhatsApp device to another.
Presumably, as giga.de
writes
, the transfer of larger amounts of data should also work faster.
According to the WhatsApp description, the respective cell phone number is not shared.
This means that privacy can be protected in this way if you only want to send something to a person but not exchange contact details.
As with sending over the Internet, data transmission should be end-to-end encrypted

Finally, it remains to be said: although there is no official release date for the new function yet, it is already eagerly awaited.
In one of the future updates for WhatsApp, the new function, i.e. “People Nearby”, will also be available to all users.
At least that's the popular assumption.
