WhatsApp introducing a new voice chat feature for large groups. With this update, the company aims to make group calls less intrusive by allowing members to be quickly invited using an in-chat bubble. These controls are embedded in the chat window for easy access, enabling users to mute, hang up, or message without leaving the chat bubble.

The Meta-owned company emphasizes that the end-to-end encryption, a security feature, extends to voice chats, and this setting is turned on by default. This ensures that the conversations remain private and secure.

The rollout of this feature will occur gradually over the next few weeks, starting with WhatsApp groups that have more than 33 people. In addition to this, the text mentions a previous update from October, where WhatsApp added the capability for users to operate two WhatsApp accounts on one phone, provided they have two SIM cards with different phone numbers.
