Sun 26 February 2023:
A new function named “schedule group calls” is reportedly being developed by Meta-owned WhatsApp and could be made available to Android and iOS users in the near future.
According to WABetaInfo, the feature is still being worked on and has not yet been made available to beta testers.
The feature will make it easier for users to plan a call with other members of the group.
The feature will include a new context menu that introduces a scheduling option when the feature is enabled for users’ accounts in the future, according to the report.
The report further mentioned that the group call scheduling feature is compatible with both audio and video calls. Also, when the call starts, all group members will be notified so they can quickly join it.
Meanwhile, WhatsApp is reportedly working on a feature which will allow users to edit messages on the platform, on iOS beta.
The new feature will give users up to 15 minutes to edit their messages to fix any mistakes or include any additional information to the original message.
This feature is currently under development and is not ready to be released to beta testers.
