The Meta-based messaging app also announced a <strong>soon-to-be-released<\/strong> update to its <strong>group voice call feature<\/strong>. The new update is here, and it&#8217;s a remarkable improvement over the previous version. WhatsApp now <strong>supports up to 32 users in a single group voice call<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The previous limit was a meager eight users per call, which understandably caused a few issues with groups of larger volumes trying to connect with each other live at the same time. Given that WhatsApp has, in recent years, become quite a <strong>powerful tool<\/strong> for keeping in touch with business interests and clients, this eight-user limit seemed a little short-sighted.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the limit adjustment only applies to voice calls on WhatsApp groups and not video calls, it still satisfies a need within the communication sphere, particularly in the corporate and social sectors where people can now be in <strong>live contact<\/strong> with more people at once. The update comes with a fresh user interface for group voice calls, complete with waveforms and a social audio layout.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new feature is available now for <a href=\"https:\/\/whatsapp.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"Android \">Android <\/a>and <a href=\"https:\/\/whatsapp.en.softonic.com\/iphone\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"iOS\">iOS<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This isn&#8217;t the only news from the WhatsApp stables, though. It seems that <strong>Meta&#8217;s messenger app<\/strong> is on the receiving end of more improvements, bug fixes, and feature additions within the last few months. In addition to an updated design for voice message bubbles, WhatsApp is also testing a beta feature that gives users more control over who sees the media they share. The new feature will let users <strong>choose recipients<\/strong> when they share media. You&#8217;ll now be able to choose between the &#8216;My Contacts&#8217;, &#8216;My Contacts Except&#8217;, and &#8216;Only Share With&#8217; options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re excited about WhatsApp\u2019s latest developments and upcoming features, here&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/whatsapp.en.softonic.com\/articles\/how-to-use-whatsapp-to-be-more-productive-tips-tricks-unleashed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"how to use Whatsapp to boost your productivity\">how to use Whatsapp to boost your productivity<\/a>.
