Therefore, although there is a possibility that it may not ultimately reach the global WhatsApp app, it seems that <strong>sooner or later it will be fully integrated so that all users can use this dialer<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WhatsApp is working on its own phone dialer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although the mentioned portal has made this discovery, they also comment that <strong>this feature is not even available for use by beta version users<\/strong> of WhatsApp, although it is a matter of time before they receive it through a future update. Obviously, although it is not known, as we said before; <strong>it is a matter of time before this addition reaches the version of the service used by everyone<\/strong>. However, the website has shared <strong>a supposed screenshot<\/strong> of how the dialer will look like when it is launched.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">?

It is worth mentioning that, for now, there is not much more information about it, but certainly this can be a very interesting addition for many users, since <strong>we will be able to make calls to unknown people without having to save their number<\/strong>, for example. In addition, <strong>WhatsApp&#8217;s end-to-end encrypted audio and video calls would take place over the Internet<\/strong>, which would benefit those people who are using WiFi or certain data plans, as stated by WABetaInfo.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"WhatsApp Beta\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-s\/p\/ece78b83-6306-41de-8075-771ac0ce5bd0\/2293498664\/whatsapp-beta-unnamed.png\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">WhatsApp Beta<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/whatsapp-beta.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Download<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/whatsapp-beta.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That being said, we will be keeping an eye on the news that will arise around this future update that WhatsApp will receive at some point. <strong>This phone markup is a quite striking feature<\/strong>, but it is not the only update that has arrived and will arrive to the Meta service.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every now and then, WhatsApp adds new features and different innovations that refresh the user experience of Meta&#8217;s messaging service, so when there is talk of a future update, it doesn&#8217;t really surprise us.
