What is the correct process to modify the photo of a WhatsApp group?
When you want to change the profile picture of a WhatsApp group, you must first have access to the group. If you were part of the group and you have left, or have been expelled, you will no longer be able to change the group photo.
If you already have access to the WhatsApp group, you will come across two situations; the first is that only the group administrators can change the information such as description, title or photo, the second is that all the participants can modify the info.
We will clarify the latter for you because the administrators have the possibility of modifying the group’s settings ; they can choose who are the ones who could change the information. If you are an administrator of the group, you will not have any problem to change the image, but if you are not, you depend on the configuration of the chat to be able to change it or not.
Be that as it may, to modify the photo of a WhatsApp group you must first search for it and enter it in your application. Then you enter the group options, click on the profile picture, in the window that is displayed you click on your gallery, look for the photo you want to place and that’s it.
How do you change your profile picture if you use WhatsApp Business?
Although WhatsApp Business has many differences from normal WhatsApp, the process to change a profile picture in a group is the same. If you have access to it and you’re an admin, there’s no problem changing the photo, but if you’re not, we rely on admins to allow any member of the chat to change the information.
To change the photo of a group in WhatsApp Business you must follow the same steps; you enter the group, go to the profile photo part, enter your gallery, select the photo you want to use and that’s it.
How to completely customize your WhatsApp group?
As we mentioned a while ago, WhatsApp groups can be customized by changing certain aspects or information such as the description, the title or the profile photo. We already told you how to change the group image, but now we will tell you how you can customize the other aspects of the chat.
Add a descriptive title
All WhatsApp groups need a title to be created , basically it is the name with which the chat can be identified. Entering the group options, you can change the title if you have the permission to do so (if you are not an administrator) or if you are an administrator, you will not need any permission to change the name. To place the title of the group you have a limit of 26 characters.
Modify the description
Although putting a description is not an obligation to create a WhatsApp group, it is always advisable to establish one so that the members of the chat can be aware of what the group is about.
In the description of the group you can also establish the rules that everyone must follow, such as always maintaining respect, saying that information cannot be shared or things of that style. To change the description , all you have to do is go to the group settings, click on the description, write what you want to go in that box and then save it.
Doing this will make it so that only administrators can modify the group
We were telling you that the group administrators can modify the chat settings so that only they are the ones who can change aspects such as the photo, description or title.
If you are a group administrator and you do not want anyone else to be able to modify it, you can go to the “Group settings” section, go to “Edit group info” and choose the “Only administrators” option.
