    WhatsApp Elevates Video Calls with AR Features in Latest iOS Update

    WhatsApp is on the verge of rolling out a series of groundbreaking augmented reality features aimed at enhancing the user experience during video calls. The latest update, which has been spotted in the iOS 24.17.10.74 update available on TestFlight.

    The AR features, previously available in beta testing for Android users, have now made their way to iOS, offering a new level of personalization and interactivity for users.

    According to WABetainfo, a reliable source for WhatsApp updates, the platform is preparing to give iOS users access to the same innovative AR features that Android users have been exploring.

    One of the standout features in this update is the introduction of dynamic facial filters. These filters allow users to customize their appearance in real-time during video calls, adding a layer of fun and creativity to virtual interactions.

    Whether it’s adjusting skin tone, applying a filter to enhance facial features, or simply experimenting with different looks, these filters provide users with greater control over their on-screen presence.

    Beyond facial filters, WhatsApp has also introduced a background editing tool that offers users the ability to blur their surroundings or replace them with one of several pre-set backgrounds provided by the platform.

    This feature not only adds a touch of professionalism to video calls but also allows users to maintain their privacy by masking their real environment. The inclusion of such tools reflects WhatsApp’s effort to cater to a wide range of user preferences, from casual users looking to have fun to professionals who may need a more polished presentation.

    The update doesn’t stop at visual enhancements. WhatsApp has also rolled out a low-light mode toggle, which significantly improves visibility during video calls in poorly lit environments.

    This feature is particularly useful for users who often find themselves in dimly lit conditions, such as during evening calls or in rooms with limited natural light. By enhancing the lighting quality of the video feed with a simple switch, users can communicate more effectively without the need for additional lighting setups.

    In line with these visual improvements, WhatsApp has added a touch-up mode that applies a subtle, natural-looking filter to smooth out skin imperfections.

    This feature is perfect for users who want to look their best during video calls, whether they are participating in important discussions or casual chats. The touch-up mode enhances users’ visuals, providing a polished and refined appearance with minimal effort.

    A notable convenience in this update is WhatsApp’s ability to remember users’ configuration settings from previous video calls. Once users set their preferred background, filter, or any other customization, the app will automatically apply these settings in future calls.

    This eliminates the need for users to reconfigure their preferences every time they start a new video call, streamlining the user experience and saving time.

    While these features are currently available to some beta testers on the latest version of WhatsApp beta for iOS via TestFlight, they are expected to be rolled out more widely in the coming weeks. This gradual rollout strategy ensures that any potential bugs or issues can be identified and addressed before the features become available to all users.

    This update is part of WhatsApp’s broader strategy to continuously enhance its platform’s usability and appeal. As competition in the messaging app space intensifies, WhatsApp’s introduction of AR features positions it as a frontrunner in the market, offering users a richer and more interactive experience.

    The integration of these advanced tools reflects Meta’s vision of transforming WhatsApp from a simple messaging app into a comprehensive communication platform that caters to the diverse needs of its global user base.

    WhatsApp is also working on other updates aimed at improving user privacy and security. One such feature, known as “Username and PIN,” will allow users to replace their phone numbers with usernames, offering an added layer of privacy.

    This feature will provide users with three privacy settings: “Username,” “Phone number,” and “Username with PIN,” giving them greater control over their personal information.

    WhatsApp has updated its Business messaging policy to enable companies in regulated sectors to send promotional messages to users in India through the WhatsApp Business platform.

    This update marks a significant step in WhatsApp’s efforts to expand its functionality beyond personal communication, offering businesses new avenues to engage with customers.
