That’s because these apps are just windowed wrappers for WhatsApp Web.
Should development of the new feature go to plan – and there’s no guarantee of that – WhatsApp Web’s new video and voice call functionality should also be available to use in the Windows 10 and macOS versions of the chat app. Facebook rolled out the feature earlier this year in response to the surge in popularity for video call services like Zoom and Google Meet following the public health crisis and widespread lockdowns. These contacts can be thrown together into a video call chat room – even if they’re not all using the same app, or in the same group chat. This is a standalone service designed to bring together contacts from all of Facebook’s messaging services, including WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger. Of course, it’s technically possible to start a video call from WhatsApp Web right now – but you’ll need to use Facebook’s new Messenger Rooms feature. For anyone who relies on WhatsApp to keep in touch with friends and family, this is going to be a huge boost when it arrives.
