WhatsApp said it will be introducing a new video calling service to its over 1 billion users worldwide on iOS, Android and Windows Phone. WhatsApp noted that the service is meant for everyone and every type of phone, from the most expensive to the most budget one. The service will be rolled out to all users over the next few days.
TechCrunch writes that during the video call itself, users will be able to switch between the forward-facing and rear camera, mute the call or press the red button to hang up. WhatsApp already supports a number of standard features for communications apps, including group texting and voice calling. But the company says that video calling has remained one of its top feature requests from users.
