Frequently Asked Questions
Can admins read private messages between members?
No. WeTalkin's E2EE means even group admins cannot read direct messages between members. Admin controls manage group structure and permissions, not message content access.
How many admins can a group have?
Groups can have multiple admins for shared management responsibilities. Each admin has the same permissions. The group owner (creator) has additional control over admin appointments.
Can I make an announcement-only group?
Yes. Set messaging permissions to "Admins only." Only designated admins can post messages. All members can read announcements but cannot reply in the main channel.
