How to Add and Invite New Members to WhatsApp Group？
To add someone directly to your WhatsApp group, open the chat, tap the group name at the top, and select either "Add Participant" or "Add Members." Then, simply choose the contact you wish to add and tap the checkmark to confirm. As an admin, you also have the option to generate a shareable invite link. Access the group info, select "Invite via link," and choose your preferred sharing method. You can always view group information, including participants and who has joined, by tapping the group name.

The Process of Adding Participants and Inviting New Members to Your WhatsApp Group
The privilege of inviting new members to a WhatsApp group is restricted to group administrators. If you lack administrative privileges, please request that a group admin invite the desired individual.
Step 1: Open the WhatsApp application and navigate to the group chat you wish to add someone to.
Step 2: Tap on the group's name at the top of the chat screen. This will open the "Group Info" menu. From there, tap on the "Add Participants" option.
Step 3: From the list that appears, search for the contacts you want to add to the group. Once you've found them, tap on each contact to select them, then tap the "Add" button (or checkmark, depending on your device).
You can also invite people using a shareable link. Tap "Invite to Group via Link" and then choose the best option for sharing it.
Can you have a three-person conversation on WhatsApp without creating a group? The answer is no. As soon as you include a third person in a chat, WhatsApp automatically generates a group chat and asks you to create a group subject (name). Therefore, a group is necessary for three people to chat together on WhatsApp.
