WhatsApp with December update

A new update has been announced for messaging service WhatsApp. The update, which will become available in the near future, first of all brings missed call notifications. This means you can now leave a voicemail if you can't reach someone by phone via WhatsApp. Depending on the type of call, you can leave a voice message or video note with one tap, somewhat similar to how you use a voicemail, but more interactive.

WhatsApp further has the ability to leave responses in voice chats. By responding to a voice chat, you can, for instance, share a congratulations without interrupting the conversation. For video calls in a group, the speaker is now displayed higher up, making it easier to follow conversations.

Chats

On the chat front, improvements are also made. Meta AI has been extended, with better ways to create images. Also, you can add animations to your images, turning them into a short video. WhatsApp also promises better link previews, with long URL links being shortened. For Mac, Windows and WhatsApp Web, you can now use the Media tab to quickly find media files.

Updates

Among the updates, you can also expect new features. You can choose new stickers to express yourself. For instance, you can choose interactive stickers, questions for others to respond to and song lyrics. Furthermore, questions can now also be shared on Channels. Administrators can communicate with the target group this way, and receive the answers in real time.
