WhatsApp Web Adds End-to-End Encrypted Voice and Video Calling

WhatsApp has launched voice and video calling for web browsers, allowing users to make encrypted calls directly from their computers without needing to install a desktop application.

The update includes features like screen sharing, reactions, and a 'Waiting Room' for group calls that requires host approval, alongside a new 'Call Transfer' tool for moving calls between devices.

These features will roll out globally over the coming weeks, offering unlimited call duration and background noise reduction to improve audio quality for browser-based users.
