About forwarding limits in whatsapp messanger

When you forward a message, you can choose to share it with up to five chats at a time.

However, when a message is forwarded through a series of five or more chats, it means that it is at least five away from its original sender, the message is labeled with a double arrow icon. These messages can only be forwarded to one chat at a time, a way to help keep conversations private and personal on WhatsApp. It also helps to slow down the spread of rumors, viral messages and fake news.

Forwarded message are end-to-end encrypted

WhatsApp messages have a counter that keeps track of how many times a message is forwarded. This counter is encrypted end-to-end so only your device and the recipient's device have access to this information. For your privacy, WhatsApp does not know how often a message is forwarded and cannot see the contents of any of your messages. Learn more about end-to-end encryption in this article.
