WhatsApp releases the update for voice and video calling
The company has noted that calls have become more reliable and have a better video resolution.
WhatsApp introduced several improvements to its video and voice calls, including new video effects, improved video call quality, and the ability to select participants for group calls.
New features for video calls
For WhatsApp users who enjoy the effects of video calls, there are 10 new filter masks to try during a call. For example, users can add "puppy ears" to their face, or imagine they're in the underwater world with a new audio - filter. The company says these effects will help "liven up" any communication.
The choice of participants for a call.
Now, when users make a call in a group chat, they can choose the participants they want to talk with in the group. This new feature allows communicating with specific members of the group instead of everyone at once.
Improved calls on the desktop app
WhatsApp has also enhanced the "Calls" feature in its PC app. When users open the "Calls" section, they can now not only initiate a call, but generate a link for a call and dial a specific number. Previously, these features were not available on the WhatsApp desktop app.
Also, the company has noted that calls have become more reliable and have a better video resolution. These improvements apply to group chats and individual calls on both desktop and mobile devices.
WhatsApp says that they "will continue making improvements to calling on WhatsApp" so users can make the best quality, private calls from all around the world.
