A new voice chat function has been added to WhatsApp, providing a smooth communication experience for big groups. Multitasking is possible with this function, which will soon be accessible on iOS and Android devices for groups of 33 to 128 people.
A new voice chat feature that makes it easier for users to enjoy smoother, less disruptive live chats with big groups has been officially deployed by WhatsApp. When a voice chat is initiated, the new function does not ring each group member separately like phone calls and voice notes do. Alternatively, users will be notified in silence and have the option to join the voice conversation whenever they like.
WhatsApp claims that users who are busy or prefer not to be interrupted will find the new functionality to be less bothersome. It's also simpler for users to join and exit discussions as needed thanks to the new voice chat functionality. To exit a voice conversation, for instance, when attending a meeting and needing to step away for a short while, one only needs to tap the chat bubble. They can rejoin by tapping the chat bubble once more when they're ready to return. Users of WhatsApp can join and exit at any moment, just like with Discord's voice chat function. Users can keep messaging while the audio chat is in progress by locating the call controls at the top of the group chat.
-On WhatsApp, to initiate a voice chat:
- To initiate a voice chat, open the group chat there.
- In the upper right corner of the screen, tap the phone icon.
- Toggle Voice Chat on.
- A push notice inviting group members to join the voice chat will be sent to them.
- The voice chat participants are listed on the banner at the bottom of the screen.
- You only need to tap the Red Cross icon to end a voice chat.
According to WhatsApp, users may multitask by managing their calls and sending texts simultaneously using the new audio chat feature. Additionally, because they are end-to-end encrypted, the only people who can see or hear the chat are you and the other participants.
Notably, in the upcoming weeks, WhatsApp will begin offering audio chats for groups of 33 to 128 people on iOS and Android smartphones. Less than 33 participants in a group can use WhatsApp's current group voice call feature, therefore they won't be able to use the service at first. Furthermore, group members who are not participating in the audio chat can view the profiles of those participating in the voice chat from the Calls tab and the chat header. This function is exclusive to your primary device. Voice chats will automatically terminate if all participants have departed or after 60 minutes if no one joins the first or last person in the chat.
