Download WhatsApp beta 2.20.135
Yesterday, on Tuesday, we reported that WhatsApp had started making group and video calls of up to eight people. Of course, it belonged to a very small group of users: and one of our cell phones has a others keep a limit of four. And that changed after the new beta was published on Google Play: WhatsApp activates eight participants with version 2.20.135: just install it and you're done.
The process is very simple: in a few steps you will be talking micro and video to a group of up to eight people. You must do the following:
- Download the latest beta of WhatsApp, compatible with version 2.20.135. If you didn't sign up for the beta (you can still do it on Android) download the app from Apk Mirror.
- All call participants should have the latest beta: Be sure before you start communicating.
- Open WhatsApp and go to the Phones section.
- Click & # 39; + & # 39; bottom right, then & # 39; New Group Call & # 39;
- Select seven contacts to call. Once selected, click on the phone icon or the camera icon, depending on the connection you want (calls or video calls).
- Communication will be established and you will all move to a grid of up to eight icons (in the case of video calls). If all eight are not yet completed you can ask for more participants.
We have been testing video calls up to eight and found that its functionality is sufficient. Audio and video are as stable as four calls, It's also easy to achieve and in the event that you don't have to install new software: most people already have WhatsApp on their phone.
Remember that you can only make group calls and video calls for up to eight participants with the latest WhatsApp beta. Everyone has to file before they strike.
