The holiday season is getting exciting with several exciting announcements by tech giants. To make your personal conversations even more exciting and customised according to your needs, WhatsApp has announced several new features and updates to its audio and video calling experience.
WhatsApp has confirmed that the new video-calling features are available for both mobile and desktop users to let you enjoy your time with your friends and family even if you are living away far.

The Meta-owned instant messaging app has introduced 10 new effects for video calls, which makes the conversations even more entertaining. While having fun conversations with your friends, you can apply several filters such as puppy ears, underwater visuals, or even a karaoke microphone effect to make you feel like you are singing a song! Apart from this, another major improvement to WhatsApp audio and video calling is the addition of selecting contacts in a group before calling.
Earlier, whenever you used to call in a group, it used to ring for everyone. However, the latest feature will make sure that you have a conversation with the selected members according to the time and need. This will be really helpful especially when you want to make plans or have private conversations within a large group without the need to make another small group just for a call! Better Video Calling Experience On Desktop If you think only mobile users are getting the benefit of the new video calling features, then know desktop users of WhatsApp are getting a revamped call tab to easily begin a call, create a link for the call, or dial directly a number even from your laptop or desktop.
Moreover, WhatsApp has also upgraded its video resolution for both group calls and personal calls with your contacts. Note that if you haven’t received these updates, then you must be getting it soon. Just make sure that your app is updated to the latest version.
