JAKARTA - It seems that Meta continues to introduce new features for its messaging service, WhatsApp. Recently, a small update was found on the display in the call tab to WhatsApp users on Android.

Found for the first time by WABetainfo, this update displays a red contact name or phone number (if not saved) if you pass the call (missed call).

Based on VOI monitoring, if you are a regular WhatsApp user, you will see all contact name colors on the call tab whether it's an incoming, outgoing, or unanswered call on WhatsApp the same, namely black (if using bright mode), and white (if using dark mode).

Namun, dengan pembaruan ini pengguna beta melihat bahwa warna dari nama kontak untuk panggulan tersebut menjadi warna merah. Ini memang bukan perubahan besar, namun update ini dapat membuat Anda melihat dengan jelas panggilan siapa yang Anda munggung.

This additional feature has been available on WhatsApp for iOS for several years, and this change is also a way to customize the Android version to the iOS version.

In addition, highlighting the red color will also make it easier for users to find out which unanswered calls require their attention, making it easier for users to keep their call logs monitored to ensure that important calls are not missed.

For information, new changes related to the contact color for this unanswered call are only available to some beta testers who installed the latest version of WhatsApp beta for Android from the Google Play Store, and will roll out to more users in the coming days.
