WhatsApp is about to add a new feature that we have been waiting for for a long time
WhatsApp is one of the most important apps we have on our smartphone and every new feature that is added can be very relevant. WhatsApp has recently been updated on the iPhone with some interesting improvements and now we have just discovered that They are working on adding a feature that we have had on our wish list for a long time.
This novelty has been detected by WABetaInfoexperts in analyzing the WhatsApp beta in search of new features that are being worked on. They have found that the feature is currently in development and is being refined to deliver the best possible experience at launch.
Support for group voice and video calls is about to arrive on WhatsApp Web
WhatsApp Web is one of the most convenient ways to use WhatsApp on a computer or a device with internet access that does not have the app available. We simply enter the website, identify ourselves and we can use WhatsApp easily and quickly on a large screen and with a keyboard.
However, WhatsApp Web has some features cut. one of them prevents you from making group voice or video calls. But this is about to change as it has just been discovered:
WhatsApp is exploring the implementation of a feature that will allow users to call within their groups directly from the web client. It’s worth noting that this feature was partially announced last year, but support for groups was still in a very early stage at that time. However, WhatsApp is now improving the basic calling functionality to fully support group chats. This additional support will ensure that all users can participate in group calls, regardless of the device they are using.
It is expected that the group calls with up to 32 participants will be added soon to WhatsApp Web, so that users can access this function regardless of the device they use. This can be very useful when we use a borrowed computer and we do not want to install the official app, but we want to use WhatsApp group video calls.
To this we must add that WhatsApp is also developing a feature that will allow users to create a call link directly from the interface of a group chat. This will also improve video calls enormously, being able to share that link with any other user so they can access the call.
