WhatsApp's Latest Update: A Mysterious Feature That Could Change Everything

New Delhi (The Uttam Hindu): WhatsApp continues to enhance the chatting experience for its millions of users with a series of new features, the latest being the In-App Call Dialer and Quick Reply for Voice Messages. These features were recently spotted in the WhatsApp Beta for Android and iOS and are expected to improve the overall functionality of the app.

The new In-App Call Dialer feature, which was first made available to beta users on Android in WhatsApp Beta for Android version 2.24.26.11, allows users to make calls without saving a phone number. This feature can be accessed through the 'Call a number' option, where users can directly enter a phone number and initiate a call. WhatsApp will then verify whether the number is registered on the platform, displaying a blue checkmark if verified. This feature offers a quick and convenient solution for making one-time calls without cluttering up your contact list. Now, the same feature is being tested in WhatsApp Beta for iOS version 24.25.10.76, as reported by WABetaInfo, with a release expected once the testing phase is complete. 

In addition, WhatsApp is introducing a Quick Reply for Voice Messages feature for iOS beta users in WhatsApp Beta version 24.25.10.74. This new option allows users to respond to voice messages instantly by recording and sending a reply right after listening. This feature aims to streamline communication, especially for those who prefer voice messages over typing.

With these updates, WhatsApp is making strides in improving user experience by making its features more accessible, efficient, and user-friendly. While these features are still in the beta testing phase, once rolled out, they are expected to be widely available to all users, further enhancing WhatsApp's position as a leading messaging platform.
