WhatsApp Web Extends Voice and Video Calls Test to Group Chats

Beta testers can make encrypted group calls on WhatsApp Web, with support for up to 32 participants, call links and screen sharing.

  • WhatsApp is currently testing group voice and video calling features on Web, allowing up to 32 participants to join conversations directly from their browser.
  • Building on the one-on-one calling functionality introduced earlier this year, the update brings the web experience closer to existing mobile and desktop app capabilities.
  • End-to-End encryption, screen sharing, and invitation URLs that automatically expire after 30 days are now available for group calls on the web platform.
  • For Linux Users, this update is particularly beneficial as WhatsApp does not offer a dedicated desktop application, making the browser-based service critical for group communication.
  • Access remains limited to beta testers with no confirmed date for a general release, though WhatsApp expects to reach more users over the coming weeks.
