---

From time to time, Meta brings some decent features to its WhatsApp messaging app. This app is quite popular, especially in the Middle East, Africa and parts of South America, Asia and Europe. Users of the famous instant messaging service can rejoice as a new upgrade is being rolled out for the Windows native program. The option to make a link to join a conversation is now available. At the moment, this feature is available for some beta users of the instant messaging service.

According to WABetaInfo, a website that tracks WhatsApp, call links are coming. Here is what the site had to say

“The team is releasing an improvement for WhatsApp calling by bringing a new feature: call links. Thanks to this feature, anyone can join the call by opening the link. It is coming in the latest WhatsApp beta for Windows 2.2307.3.0 update on the Microsoft Store,”

How to use WhatsApp Call Links

Users can find the new WhatsApp call link option in the call tab. Here is how to get a link

1. Access the calls page of the app to see if your WhatsApp account has access to the new call connection option.
2. Select the contact format between voice and video if you want to use this function.
3. After selecting the format, it creates a link automatically
4. Copy the URL and share it in your WhatsApp chats

• Tap the Calls tab.
• Tap Create Call Link.
• Select your call type, video or voice.
• Tap Copy Link, Send Link via WhatsApp to share in WhatsApp or Share Link to share it in another app.

WhatsApp ‘Call Links’ uses different links for different calls

The URL is always different each time you make a new call link, ensuring that nobody can join your private conversation without your consent. The call link feature makes it simple to ask individuals to join a WhatsApp conversation without first adding them to your contacts. Only those with whom you shared the link can use this function for one-off calls with individuals you may not know well. In addition, it is a flexible choice because sharing the connection extends to external parties.

After downloading and installing the WhatsApp beta for Windows 2.2307.1.0 upgrade from the Microsoft Store, the new call link feature has been made accessible to beta users. Please be aware that if you don’t see this version on the Microsoft Store, it will be distributed to more people over the next few days, according to WABetaInfo.
