WhatsApp Launches Missed Call and Voice Chat Reactions Features

JAKARTA - To celebrate the Christmas and New Year holidays, WhatsApp introduced two new features, including the ability to leave an unanswered call message and reactions in voice chats.

The missed call message feature is designed to address users' busy schedules during the holidays. If the person you are calling cannot answer the call, you can now record a voice or video message with one tap.

Later, this note can be listened to by the recipient. The feature of leaving a message on this missed call is believed to make traditional voice messages feel outdated. The reason is that this new feature offers a more efficient way.

The type of message that can be recorded also depends on the type of call that is not answered. If the user contacts in the form of a phone call, then the message that can be left is a voice message. Conversely, messages in the form of video can be left in a video call.

Another new feature is reactions in voice chats. When your interlocutor is telling a story over a voice call, you may want to respond, but are afraid of interrupting. Therefore, WhatsApp presents reaction support.

With this feature, users can react during a voice chat. This allows you to share short sayings such as 'cheers!' in the form of a reaction without having to interrupt the ongoing conversation.

These features show WhatsApp's efforts to improve the user experience. The platform is committed to keeping communication smooth and interactive, especially in busy situations.
