Now, the company is slowly rolling out the much anticipated WhatsApp Voice Calling feature (only for Android users now).

Reddit user pradnesh07 claims (via gadgets.ndtv) users who are running the aforementioned combination of WhatsApp app version, Android OS version, and device make will not be able to activate the voice calling feature until they receive a call from someone else with the feature already activated – hinting at a slow, almost invite-based roll-out.
Even with feature enabled on the app on the phone, one cannot place the call until unless he/she receives a call from the person who has the feature enabled. User pradnesh07 claims that he wasn’t able to make calls himself; he got the calling feature activated after receiving a call from WhatsApp.
The way the update is available to only limited users, we can infer that the company is still testing the feature. Also, the way UI is described in the screenshot, it needs more improvements.
The changes are as follows:
- Introduction of “Call” tab , alongside Chats and Contacts tab.
- The call screen include basic call features – disconnect, mute, loudspeaker mode and message access.
