Early last month, WhatsApp roll out their voice calling feature to Android, the founder Brian Acton said that he is making his way introduce to iOS user soon. Finally, the Facebook-owned company has rolled out the feature to iOS users.
However, the strategy behind the launching of this feature is probably going to be the same like the launch for their Android. Not all users will receive an update at once, but it happen over the next few weeks. (Too bad you'll still need some patience).
In the next few weeks, you can call your friends and family using WhatsApp for free, and there will be no more country's barrier. What you need is only WiFi (using WiFi is way much better than using your data, trust me.)
If you notice that, the latest version of their update also includes an iOS 8 share extension, a quick camera button in chats, the ability to edit your contacts right from WhatsApp and an option to send multiple videos at once. So what you can do is, you can crop and rotate the videos before sending them out. The iOS 8 share extension also allows you to send videos, photos and links to WhatsApp chats from other apps. And the quick camera button lets you seamlessly capture photos and videos or choose a recent camera roll photo or video.
We will see that with approximately 800 million of active monthly users today is going to benefit from this, and potentially this feature is going to upset a lot of carriers worldwide.
