WhatsApp for Android will include video calls – Analítica.com

Video in WhatsApp

The arrival of voice calls to WhatsApp has been one of the most relevant news that have landed in the app since the beginning of the same. However, it seems that the progression of the app in its goal to become the best app of communication, it would be now to include a new function, not only to improve the previous one, but offers something more. In this case it would be the video calls, a feature that we have been talking about for a long time, but that now seems closer than ever. We note that recently the company’s search engine has released Google Duo, an app with which you want to compete with the new feature is coming to WhatsApp, although ahead of this. By this probably WhatsApp does not want to waste their time and to launch his new role, so as not to lose users this way. In the end, the future of the communication between users is not clear, and we don’t know when it’s going to produce the next big change, as could be the step to the video call.

The latest Beta version of WhatsApp for Android as he leaves us clues that make us think that the function of video calls could be very close. Specifically, we have included related files with the new feature, as is the "video_stream_activity.xml". In addition to this, there are strings of text that make reference to the new function of facetime video calls. And the changes that have come at the domestic level are also very noticeable. The APK file now weighs more, 188 KB, while they have modified a total of 554 files, changes too important not to have almost no relevance. Be that as it may, the function of video calls cannot be used in WhatsApp, nor in the Beta version, of course, so you still will have to wait until we can make video calls. In addition, it is very likely that the arrival of this role is progressive, being initially available to a small group of users, to expand after gradually to all others.
