If an application is constantly changing, that is WhatsApp. The popular messaging service has announced some changes in its activity to offer new experiences to its users. These are six new WhatsApp features scheduled for this 2021 , according to the site RT .
Calls from WhatsApp web
Perhaps one of the most anticipated functions is that of being able to call with and without video through the web version of the application . WhatsApp is already working on it, so you can achieve it on your computer or on another device that is not just your smartphone. Although the exact details of this new functionality are unknown, it is likely that they are the same as what calls and video calls now have on WhatsApp.
File self-destruct
If you have ever been concerned about who else can see a photo, video or image that you send to any of your contacts, this new functionality could end that problem, well It would allow you to schedule attachments to self-destruct once your contact has seen them. Those files would be automatically deleted from the recipient’s phone once they reach the expiration date you set when sending them .
On vacation
We all have a chat that is very active during the day but we cannot leave for various reasons. For those chats WhatsApp develops a “vacation mode”. In this way it will be possible to archive the conversations of some groups, silence them and deactivate notifications without losing details of the activity .
Use on different devices
You can use your same account on four different devices without the main one being connected to the internet , so that you can use WhatsApp Web, for example, even if your phone is turned off.
Shopping
You will not have to leave WhatsApp to buy something through Facebook Shops. Thanks to this new functionality, you will be able to complete the entire buying and selling process without leaving the courier service . You can add products to a Facebook shopping cart and buy them if you wish, all from the chat.
The ads arrive
In addition to the terms of use will change on February 8, now WhatsApp could send you announcements within the application, but not in the form of chat . In this way, it will invite you to click on sites outside the app if any are of interest to you.
