Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has announced the introduction of a new feature on WhatsApp, the globally popular messaging app. This feature allows users to share their screens during video calls.
This update was anticipated since it had been previously tested with beta users in May. Now, it is officially being launched for all users of the stable version of WhatsApp worldwide.
The functionality of this feature is easy. It enables users to share any content displayed on their screens, such as documents, presentations, or photos, during a video call. However, it remains uncertain whether this feature will support video games.
To use this feature, users need to press the share button during a video call. They can then decide whether they want to display a specific window or their entire screen, similar to other chat applications like Google Meet, Discord, and Zoom.
As is typical with the launch of new features, the roll-out will follow a phased approach. This means that not all users may have immediate access to it. However, it is expected to be available to all users on Android, iOS, and Windows desktop clients in the near future.
Alongside the screen-sharing feature, WhatsApp has also added support for landscape mode during video calls, enhancing the user experience.
Furthermore, WhatsApp is reportedly developing several other features that have been identified in beta versions of the app. These include 3D animated stickers, enhanced security through email verification, and various minor updates to the app’s user interface. These updates are expected to be released soon, further enriching the app’s functionality and user experience.
