WhatsApp Channel is an effective way to obtain the latest information about your interests and the company is now testing a new Username feature to boost the app experience. Eventually, this functionality will enable you to open some specific channels via their usernames.
So far, while sharing the information of a channel, we need to transport its link so that others may be able to get the update. However, the all-new WhatsApp Channel Username feature eliminates this requirement and establishes a more recognizable presence.
In addition, the feature will accompany other capabilities such as personalized channel links, based on the current username. Thus, it would be convenient for channel owners and followers to share and discover their favorite content.
How to access the Channel Username?
Currently, the feature is in the development stage for Android beta testers via the 2.23.24.17 version. Although you can make your way to the Google Play Store and join the beta channel to get the latest build. In terms of location, you may find this feature on the Channel Info page as shown in the screenshot below.
