A change spotted in WhatsApp beta limits the sharing of regular messages (not just frequently forwarded ones) with multiple chats.
Facebook is introducing a forwarding limit on Messenger as part of its efforts to slow the spread of misinformation.
WhatsApp is piloting a way for users to double-check forwarded messages by uploading them through their browser - without WhatsApp seeing them.
To continue making its app safer for its users, WhatsApp is tweaking and testing new limits on its forwarding feature.
