With this update, the WhatsApp beta available on Microsoft will be up to 2.2323.1.0. This update features a new call-back feature. It allows the users to call the missed calls back, and as with all the updates, it is available for some fortunate beta testers. WhatsApp is always on the roll to fix any issue, like bugs, and moves towards introducing new features for its application on Windows. This time, the messaging platform has added a new feature in regards to missed calls. The “call button” allows the missed calls to be more visible and noticeable. When a call goes unanswered or the user misses a call, this button appears within an event message. This feature is available for users who install the latest version of WhatsApp for Windows, which can be availed from the Microsoft Store. This button simply provides an easier and quicker way to call up their missed calls by simply tapping on the button. WhatsApp intends to highlight any unanswered calls that may have been of prime importance. This button may be a simple improvement, but it enhances the user interface of the WhatsApp version for Windows. With a steady stream of fresh upgrades, WhatsApp is here with another new feature for iOS and Android users. The messaging service is getting ready to roll out a new feature that will let users send short video messages up to 60 seconds long. As with previous beta upgrades, this one is first accessible to a small group of beta testers before being made available to more users. By enabling users to send brief video messages, this feature improves the platform’s communication capabilities. According to WABetaInfo, you may check to see if the functionality is active on your smartphone by touching on the microphone icon located on the chat bar of any conversation. You can now use the feature if the button transforms into a button for a video camera. When a user sends or receives a video message, they must enlarge the video by touching on it in order to hear the audio. In order for the recipient to receive the video messages, the user must additionally request that they update their WhatsApp version. Previously, another new feature that WhatsApp released allowed certain beta users to screen share during a group call over the messaging service. Users who have access to the capability can share the content that is now shown on their screen by selecting one of the options under the video call button control. WhatsApp will ask you if you want to share all of your screen or just a portion of it when you press the button. One can continue to communicate the contents of their screen even after participants have joined the call through their mobile devices. This function is comparable to what Google Meet offers. WhatsApp added the voice call feature to its desktop app in 2021. Now, the social media platform is reportedly bringing more updates to the voice and video calling features on the web version. The Meta-owned instant messaging app is reportedly rolling out a ‘call back' notification that will ensure that no missed call goes unnoticed. The update is currently reported to be rolling out for beta users on the Microsoft Store, with the new version 2.2323.1.0. The feature will gradually roll out to more users globally. In the new beta update for WhatsApp web, the “call back” prompt will be shown next to the missed call alert for WhatsApp users on Windows, according to the screenshots shared in a WABetaInfo report. Currently, when a video or voice call get missed on WhatsApp, it simply shows as a missed call alert. With the new beta update, as soon as the users would tap on the call back icon, it would let them return the calls instantly, whether they are voice or video calls. Beta testers of WhatsApp web will need to install the app's latest version 2.2323.1.0 from Microsoft Store to get this feature.

Recently, WhatsApp also improved video communication on Android and iOS beta platforms. Taking a leaf from Snapchat and Telegram’s book, WhatsApp has introduced video message sharing in its latest WhatsApp beta for iOS 23.12.0.71 and WhatsApp beta for Android 2.23.13.4. The feature allows users to send real-time video messages up to 60 seconds to their contacts.

The feature adds a new dedicated screen-sharing button in the bottom row during the video call. It is clear that WhatsApp is working overtime to become a one-stop solution for all voice and video-related services and take on platforms like Meets, Zoom, Skype, etc. WhatsApp might race past its alternatives due to the massive user base of around 2.78 billion and new features being added. Along with these updates, WhatsApp announced the introduction of Channels, and as with any update, it is now available to some beta users. Under a brand-new tab called Updates, users may browse Channels and Status. This feature makes it possible for people and organisations all over the world to interact and makes one-way broadcast conversations easier. However, Telegram, an open-source platform, already offers features quite similar to this one. How Does ‘Call back’ work? As per a screenshot uploaded by WABetaInfo on its website, the ‘Call back’ button is now visible on the event message that shows up when a call is missed on WhatsApp. Also, as seen in the image attached above, one must simply tap the button to call back (hence the feature name) the person who made the first call. Why is WhatsApp bringing this Feature? WhatsApp, the report says, ‘wants to make it clearer that the message event is dedicated to the possibility of calling back the contact after receiving a missed call.’ Availability The instant messaging service has, for now, made the ‘Call back’ option available to select beta users only, so that it can be tested for any possible flaw or shortcoming before a more general release. If you don't see this update on the Microsoft Store, you need not worry; it will be released to more people over the coming days. Common questions Answers Name of the feature? Call back Status?
