The WhatsApp communication application now has a multitude of new features for cats, calls and channels. For example, it will be easier to see which of your group cat friends is online at any time, and you can also make sure not to be overwhelmed by the application notifications.
The new features of cats now include an indicator in group cats that show which members are currently online, so that you can see who to talk to. If you are in particularly active group cats (hello, overwhelming family groups), you can customize the notifications you receive, in particular by choosing them to be sent only when someone writes directly or responds to your previous messages. Here is the complete list of new cat features:
- Online indicator in group cats
- New parameters to limit notifications, using @mections, answers and messages
- Create events in individual conversations, answer “perhaps”, pin an event in a cat and more
- See the reactions of others and press the one you want to send
- IPhone users can now scan and modify documents directly from the application
- Also on iPhone, you can now define WhatsApp as your default email and call application
For calls, it will now be easier to add more users, and it will be possible to zoom in on video calls. WhatsApp has also improved video call technology, which should now freeze less often and have a higher image quality.
Here are all the new call features:
- Pinch to zoom in for a more in -depth look on the videos
- Add a user to a call from a cat
- Take advantage of best quality video calls
Finally, there are new features for channels: channel administrators will now be able to record and share short video clips up to 60 seconds, and voice messages in the chain will now be summarized in text. Here is the full list:
- Save and share videos for a minute
- Get a written summary of vocal messages updates
- Share a unique QR code on your channel with subscribers and friends
