JAKARTA - Whatsapp has finally started rolling out picture-in-picture modes for iOS users, which allows users to open other applications while still being able to continue video calls.
Found by 9to5google, this feature was first tested in December last year, for Whatsapp Beta users, and now the PiP feature has been launched for all iPhone users.
According to his records, this capability was released for the version of the Whatsapp app 23.3.77, which was recently available on the App Store. There, Meta also confirmed that the app added support for picture-in-picture.
The PiP feature on WhatsApp works the same way as in Android apps or other apps, such as Apple FaceTime. Once you join a video call and leave Whatsapp, the app will automatically display a video in a small floating window when you open another app.
However, there are still more Whatsapp updates to come today. According to the company, iPhone users can now also add text when sending documents. In addition, WhatsApp now supports a long description for special groups and avatars.
On the other hand, Meta is also rumored to be developing a new transcript feature that allows you to copy audio messages into text or transcription voice memos.
With this feature, users who don't like listening to audio messages can easily read the message content as plain text. The feature is currently under development and is only available on the latest Whatsapp beta update for iOS version 23.3.0.73.
