The Meta-owned messaging service is introducing a set of new features aimed at making group calls easier to plan and more interactive.
WhatsApp said on Thursday in a blog post that is rolling out a call scheduling option that lets users plan meetings or catch-ups in advance by tapping the "" button in the Calls tab and selecting "Schedule call".
Upcoming calls will now appear in the Calls tab, complete with attendee lists and shareable call links that can be added to personal calendars. Participants will get notifications when the call is about to start.
