A significant change to video calls is imminent — WhatsApp
Share this post:

With the addition of backgrounds and filters for video calls, WhatsApp is about to grow even more entertaining.

This is a first for WhatsApp, however it is commonly known that users can do this on platforms like Zoom and Google Meets.

A basic blur effect is one of the options that we will all be able to enjoy at launch, along with the Living Room, Office, Cafe, Pebbles, Foodie, and Smoosh.

WhatsApp now offers settings like a beach, sunset, celebration, and forest if you’re looking for something a little more dramatic.

It doesn’t stop there either because filters are going to become a massive part of video calls going forward.

These include ones that can make you look more attractive and boost the features on your face.

They are called Warm, Cool, Black & White, Light leak, Dreamy, Prism light, Fisheye, Vintage TV, Frosted glass and Duo tone.

WhatsApp said in a statement: ‘Conversations on WhatsApp should always feel fun and expressive and today, we’re rolling out filters and backgrounds to make your video calls even more engaging.

‘With these new effects, you can now change your background or add a filter during a video call for a more personal touch.

‘Filters are designed to help you create a more playful atmosphere, whether that’s adding a splash of color or creating a more artistic feel for your video.

‘With backgrounds, you can keep your surroundings private and transport yourself to a cozy coffee shop or comfortable living room for a more clean and polished look.’

RECOMMENDED  WhatsApp is working on a feature that would allow you to retrieve deleted messages

You are probably wondering how on earth to download all these new incredible features.

Well to do this you need to select the effects icons on top right of the screen.

From this you will then be able to see all selection of filters and backgrounds and choose the one that suits your mood.

But don’t do it just yet because the features have not been released but WhatsApp confirmed they will be in the next few weeks.
