WhatsApp is constantly adding new features to improve the user experience. This Meta-owned instant messaging platform allows you to make voice and video calls in addition to messages. WhatsApp’s voice and video calling feature, Call Link, has recently received an update. The Call Link feature is currently available on both iOS and Android devices in the Calls tab of WhatsApp.
How does WhatsApp’s ‘Call Link’ feature work?
You can create and share a voice or video call link with your contacts using the WhatsApp Call Link feature. When your contacts click the link, it will immediately connect them to the active voice or video call. You can share the call link with a single person or with a WhatsApp group. Users can also copy and paste the link into other platforms. On your mobile phone, follow these steps to create and share a WhatsApp voice or video call link.
WhatsApp Call Link for Android and iOS
- Launch WhatsApp on your iOS or Android device.
2. Go to the Calls tab.
3. Tap on the Create Call Link option available at the top.
4. Select your call type, whether you want to make a video or voice call.
5. Hit the Share Link or Copy Link button.
6. Send the link in WhatsApp chat, group or another app.
The URL for each call link is unique, with 22 character identifiers, so no one can guess your call link. If you lose or forget the link you created, you can easily create another one. The created WhatsApp Call Links expire after 90 days if they are not used. You can block users who enter your call link and save your link if you intend to use it again.
