Enables group call and video call
The limitations in group chats on whatsapp is that,it doesn’t support voice and video calls more than couple user’s ;that is,more than two people at a time.Though,it may change soon as whatsapp is developing a new group ‘calling feature’.The Beta version 2.18.39 was first seen by a tech portal,Wabetainfo,the feature has put in the call and video button next to contact names in the group.Moreover,users can add multiple contacts to begin a ‘group call’.
Information About a Group
Soon,whatsapp will have an ‘about us’ section for groups,first seen in beta version 2.18.54 by Wabetainfo,where any member can add a description about the group.All members can see the description at the top of the group info section.The option to edit the description will be available to all members,but the group administrators can restrict other members from modifying them.
Enabling From Voice To Video Calls With One-Tap
Whatsapp is increasingly working on a switch button activation in voice calls.This will allow users to switch from voice to video calls without disconnecting the ongoing call.Clicking on the switch button will send an invitation to the person at the other end of the call to switch to video call.The features was first seen in the beta version 2.18.4. Summarizing the features; ‘’whatsapp has developed a new easy and convenient feature that enhance the user’s experience’’. ‘’whatsapp has released a new video call switch button’’.The button is only visible when you’re in a voice call;when tapped,whatsapp will send a request to the recipient,asking if he/she wants to ‘convert’ the current voice call in a video call.This feature is created to save time.’’Thanks to this option,it’s all faster now with the features’. ’’Members can now accept or reject the request;but if he/she will reject,the voice call will normally continue,otherwise,whatsapp will automatically switch the voice to the video call.’’
