info

If you joined a group very recently, like in minutes ago, it can take a few more minutes for 2Chat to be able to list it.

info

If you connected your number to 2Chat for the first time, it can take between 5 to 30 minutes for your WhatsApp groups to be listed. If more than 30 minutes have passed and you still can't see your group, please get it touch with us using our Customer Support channels.
