New WhatsApp Features You Need to Check Out

New WhatsApp Features You Need to Check Out




Facebook-owned instant messenger service WhatsApp is one of the fastest growing social networks on the planet. To keep up with the growing demands of its millions of users, the app frequently receives updates to add new features.
Just a short while ago, we talked about six new WhatsApp features you should know about. Well, since then, the developers have added a whole bunch of new abilities that make the app better than ever. Plus, WhatsApp is now free forever!
To get these new features, you will need to have the latest version of WhatsApp, v2.12.51. The update is currently available only for Android and iOS users. You can download the app from the respective app store, or update it from your phone if you already have it.

    WhatsApp should allow video calling. That’s the one feature we’ve all been waiting for forever. Don’t know what’s taking so long.

    Maybe it’s lack of caffeine, but it seems to me that Whatsapp took away only local backups.
    I used to move the 2AM automatic local backup to my home NAS first thing in the morning, and for a few days I have noticed the transfers to be too quick. Today I checked, and sure enough: there was no new msgstore.db.crypt8 in my NAS, just photos and contact pictures.
    Checked the phone and there was a message on the whatsapp backup settings screen warning me that it could not perform the backup since there was no connection at the time (my phone puts itself in airplane mode from 11PM to 5AM).
    I have whatsapp set up so it never backup to Google Drive (since I am used to backup the backup myself, and the Google drive one is dissapointingly hidden). Strangely enough, it performed a manual local backup (that I moved inmediately to my NAS)
