Facebook Messenger adds admin privileges and joinable links

Facebook Messenger is helping users gain more control over group chats with new features the social network is introducing. One is the introduction of admin privileges into group chats. An administrator of a group chat will be able to do things like approve or remove members from group chats as well as promote or demote any person in a group chat into an admin. This is particularly useful for big groups where you’d want to moderate who joins the chat. Another new feature that is coming to Facebook Messenger will make it easier to add users to group chats. There will now be custom invite links that you can send out to someone if you want them to join your chat group. Those who click on the link will be added automatically, unless admin approval is needed.
