Shuls depend on WhatsApp for real-time communication: minyan reminders, shiur announcements, yahrtzeit notifications, simcha news. FilteredWhatsApp enables congregants to stay connected while removing the social media features.

How Shuls Use FilteredWhatsApp

Gabbaim and administrators continue using regular WhatsApp. Congregants with FilteredWhatsApp receive all messages normally — without seeing Channels, Status from other members, or Meta AI.

Recommending FilteredWhatsApp to Your Congregation

Many rabbis and gabbaim have recommended FilteredWhatsApp to their congregations. We can provide printed flyers for your shul and group discount codes for congregants. Contact (718) 971-4311 or yisrael@kolboapp.com to discuss a shul partnership.
