WhatsApp has rolled out major updates to improve calling on both desktop and mobile devices. Users can now enjoy screen sharing with audio, allowing for a seamless co-viewing experience. The number of participants in a video call has also increased to 32, making it easier to host larger meetings and gatherings.
These updates also include a speaker spotlight feature, highlighting the current speaker during calls. Additionally, WhatsApp has enhanced audio and video quality with the new MLow codec, offering better noise and echo cancellation for mobile users and higher resolution video for those with faster connections.
