[br][br]This feature is available to all WhatsApp versions and can be accessed by opening Settings and then tapping on Account ] Privacy ] Groups. You can then select one of three options: “Nobody," “My Contacts," or “Everyone."[br][br]“Nobody" means you'll have to approve joining every group to which you're invited, and “My Contacts" means only users you have in your address book can add you to groups[br][br]In those cases, the person inviting you to a group will be prompted to send a private invite through an individual chat, giving you the choice of joining the group. You'll have three days to accept the invite before it expires.[br][br]
