WhatsApp has introduced new features to make calling more seamless and engaging, catering to both personal and professional use.
Key updates include:
- Scheduled Calls: Users can now set up group calls in advance, inviting individuals or entire groups, with reminders sent before the call starts.
- In-Call Tools: A new hand-raise option and quick reactions let participants interact without disrupting conversations.
- Better Call Management: The Calls tab now shows upcoming calls with attendee lists and shareable links, while call creators get alerts when someone joins via a link.
WhatsApp reiterated that all personal calls remain protected with end-to-end encryption. The global rollout is underway, aiming to make calls both more productive and enjoyable.
