Messenger Rolls Out New ‘Group Invite Links’ That Allow Admins To Add People Easily

Messenger has always been keen on simplifying its group chat connections and this next feature is doing just that.

The platform has launched its ‘Group Invite Links’ and through this means, admins can add people to group chats easily. The feature works exactly the way it sounds, providing admins convenience at its finest.


The company’s new chief was seen putting up displays that show exactly how the feature works. Admins can now share links on various group chats on the app. And that’s great in terms of making a fresh start with a new community. Be it study groups or those designed to keep in touch with class parents- we feel it’s great to kickstart the new school year with this functionality.

The platform mentioned in its recent blog statement how the release was a long time coming and one of the most requested demands by users. Now, friends, colleagues, loved ones, communities, and more can connect and communicate easier.

They will no longer need to search for a member separately and can easily add a separate contact. As seen previously, the group’s admin will still have complete control of the entire group’s chatting experience. Hence, it’s only the admin members who have the capability to turn links for groups on or off. At the same time, only they can approve the entry of certain new individuals.

We feel this is a much more resourceful way to make the most of the whole chat experience. Similarly, we also see this as a great initiative in terms of a brand’s perspective. It’s now going to be so much easier to invite users to the most exclusive communities out there.

Here, brands could unveil details related to their business or different types of product information. You can even contact them now much more simple for the latest news on designs. The end result is creating stronger bonds while targeting relevant audience members. And what better way to make the most of brand awareness than this?

Interestingly, Meta has mentioned how the feature would be available for chats on its Instagram app too. Group admins will have the chance to share group links through their Stories with the Join Chat feature.

If you’re looking to share the link on Messenger, all you need to do is follow a series of short steps. Firstly, you need to be the group’s admin to avail so be careful of that. Next, go to thread details present on any group chat.

After that, click Chat Info and press the Invite Link. Now, toggle the link for the invite to have it activated. It’s totally up to you to decide how you wish to share the invite link. You can copy it down or simply select the option located on the share sheet.

Once you’re done, the respective recipient would be allowed to click on the link and enter the new chat.
