O WhatsApp is testing a mode that lets you use other apps while video chatting with contacts on iOS. Availability of picture-in-picture mode should only start in 2023.
The functionality of using WhatsApp in a video call while accessing other applications on iOS has been being tested for some time. The goal is to move forward with a global launch sometime next year. Remember, some Android mobile phones already allow this mode to be used in certain applications, including WhatsApp, but this does not happen on iPhones.
BUT: WhatsApp brings new features for messages that can only be read once
The native integration of this functionality will help users who need, for example, to collaborate in the creation of a project while they are making a video call, or even for those who get bored and want to go play or surf the net during the video call, remember O The Verge.
O BetaInfo reveals that there are other features being tested and that should arrive in the next versions, which go through sound waves that are shown when people are talking, but with the camera off or notifications that appear at the top of the screen when someone new joins a video call .
