Accordingly facebook owned whatsapp has become the latest Voice over Internet Protocol service (VoIP) provider to support call waiting feature even as the company has skipped adding call holding for now. Meanwhile when you're already talking on the phone and another person tries to call you, most phones and operators let you know that you've got a call waiting. Very few VOIP services support that, though, and whatsapp wasn't among them until now.
Previously, when somebody would try to call you on whatsapp while you were already on the phone, they would hear it ring, but, no one would answer. The call would then get disconnected, and the person you were calling would get a notification for a missed call once they hung up and it is important to note that while you can switch to the incoming call, there is no option to put the active call on hold. Once you switch, the call is automatically terminated. Perhaps call waiting is available in v2.19.352 stable (APK Mirror) and above of whatsapp, and v2.19.128 (APK Mirror) of whatsapp business, the report added.
Moreover the feature was rolled out to iOS users last month. Meanwhile, the latest whatsapp beta update has brought three new options for dark mode on the app and apparently the light theme would offer a white background. Dark theme, as the name suggests, would enable dark mode on whatsapp, according to WABetaInfo, a fan website that tracks whatsapp updates.
