WHATSAPP LAUNCHES COOL NEW FEATURES

Just in time for the festive season, social messaging app WhatsApp has launched several cool new features.

With two million calls made every single day, WhatsApp is gaining users, especially to make calls.

One of the new features is improved calling on desktop. You can now click the calls tab on the WhatsApp desktop app to start a call, create a call link, or dial a number directly.

You can now also start a call from a group chat where you can only select specific participants for the group chat. This is ideal for planning surprise parties or presents.

Video calls have also been upgraded with ten new effects to transform your video calls. Why not add puppy ears, a microphone for karaoke, or going underwater to your video call?

With the new features you can also enjoy higher resolution video calls with a clearer picture for both one-on-one calls and group calls.

Ready to start using the cool new WhatsApp video call features? Make sure you upgrade your app to the latest version and get ready to start rocking those jingle bells this festive season.
