WhatsApp has recently announced that the messaging app will be seeing a number of new features on the Android, KaiOS, iPhone and web platforms. WhatsApp for iPhone and Android will have an improved video call experience alongside features like animated stickers and QR codes in the weeks to come. Also, we could see WhatsApp for Web finally have a dark mode.
The QR code feature lets users add up new contacts easily. Here, all you need to do is scan the other device’s QR code and then they are added to your contact list automatically. For video calls, users will now be able to enlarge a participant’s video to fill the entire screen during a group video call.
A new video icon will also be made available in groups with up to 8 members. When you click on this icon, you will be able to start a video call directly with all the other participants rather than needing to add them individually. The WhatsApp dark mode which has been available for mobile devices since March is also expected to launch on WhatsApp Web.
These new changes are expected gradually in the coming weeks, as we are not certain what regions will receive these updates first.

Video communications app Zoom revealed on Wednesday that it has added over 100 features to its video conferencing as a part of its 3-month plan to address privacy concerns. The company also announced that it has made progress on a transparency report that references information related to requests Zoom receives for records, data or content.
The video conferencing platform has seen an increase in the number of users since the COVID-19 pandemic forced lockdowns in a number of countries around the world. Users expressed a number of security concerns from “ Zoombombing ” to other more serious security concerns.
These security concerns have forced the company to make a number of major security upgrades to better protect its users. One of which includes a 90-day plan by the company to address these privacy and security concerns. They have also hired several security experts including former Facebook security chief Alex Stamos.
It also plans to provide end-to-end encryption for video calls to paying and free users, with a trial version set to be launched this month.
These features should provide more protection for users, making their connections more secure during their video call sessions.
