WhatsApp continues to work on new features to enhance the user experience. In this context, the platform has started testing new functions that will be life-saving for voice and video calls. Here are the details!
WhatsApp’s New Call Features Revealed
WhatsApp has started testing new features that will significantly improve the user experience in voice and video calls. Considering the recent scam calls from unrelated countries, we can say that these innovations will also increase user security. In this context, three new features were detected in WhatsApp beta version 2.25.10.16 for Android.

The most notable of the new features is the ability to mute the microphone in advance for voice calls. With this function, you will be able to mute the microphone before answering the call. A new option will greet us on the call notification screen. This will be quite useful for users who have to accept calls in noisy environments.
Another function is for video calls. The new feature will allow users to turn off the camera before accepting a video call. This will provide convenience for those who don’t want to immediately appear in front of the camera. Additionally, it will provide an extra layer of privacy when answering video calls from unknown numbers.
Finally, emoji reactions are being added to video calls. This will allow users to send instant emojis to each other during video calls.
WhatsApp’s new features are currently being tested with a limited number of users. If everything goes as planned, these features could be released to general use in the coming weeks. However, it’s worth noting that there’s no guarantee that every tested function will be released.
