WhatsApp is working on the voice or video calling feature for the desktop app and the web and is expected to be available soon. Facebook-owned WhatsApp has been trying to introduce calling features for its web users for a long time. After developing for several months, now this feature is coming soon. According to a report by WABetaInfo, the voice and video call feature is now available in beta. Testing is going on and it is expected that WhatsApp will make some changes to it before making some changes for all users.
No need to sign up for call on WhatsApp
Once the testing is complete, WhatsApp web users will be able to make video and voice calls through the desktop. Once the feature arrives, WhatsApp web video conferencing apps like Zoom. Google will give a tough competition to Meet and Microsoft Teams. With most people using WhatsApp and unlike other apps, there is no need to sign up for WhatsApp. Because of these, video calling through WhatsApp can be more popular than other platforms.
This is how you will call
According to the report, once the feature goes live, a separate window will pop up on the WhatsApp desktop after users receive a voice or video call on WhatsApp. To make a call, users have to open the chat and choose the option of voice or video call on the top right. It is almost similar to the way calls are made through mobile apps. WhatsApp currently allows eight members in a group call for Android and iOS users.
For a long time, WhatsApp users around the world were demanding this feature. While this feature has been seen in the beta version, it is not yet clear when the company will officially announce its launch or what is its status at present.
