Samuel Mobolaji
WhatsApp is rolling out an exciting new feature to make video calls more engaging and personal. Users can now add filters and change backgrounds during video calls, adding a creative and expressive touch to their conversations.
The new filters are designed to create playful atmospheres, whether it’s adding vibrant colors or an artistic twist. Backgrounds allow users to keep their surroundings private while transporting themselves to virtual spaces like a cozy café or a polished office setting.
With 10 filters, including options like Warm, Dreamy, and Vintage TV, and 10 backgrounds ranging from a beach to a living room, users can mix and match for a unique experience. The platform is also introducing “Touch up” and “Low Light” options to enhance the brightness and clarity of video calls, ensuring users look their best.
