WhatsApp for iOS tests a new interface for voice calls, E2E label
It’s almost the end of the year, but there are still some features that WhatsApp is preparing for launch as soon as possible. One of them is a new interface for voice calls.
As discovered by WABetaInfo, this new interface for voice calls is under development, which means no public beta tester can try it out at this time, although the post notes that it will be available in a future update for iOS and Android users.
WhatsApp is redesigning the interface for a future update to make it more compact and modern, by organizing the available space: the new redesign will be pleasant especially during group voice calls.
Although at first glance it doesn’t seem like much has changed, it looks more refined than the current version. Not only that, but we’ll still have to wait and see how WhatsApp handles some of the UI tweaks that aren’t shown in this screenshot.
Not only that but WABetainfo also states that WhatsApp is working on metrics for end-to-end encryption. As you probably know, it has been a few years since all messages in the app have been end-to-end encrypted. With that in mind, the team behind WhatsApp decided to make some new visual additions so that you can know for sure that whatever you say is between you and the people you choose.

As you can see in the screenshot above, WhatsApp is working on new metrics for Status and Call sections. The post said “WhatsApp also plans to add the same notice in the Chats section.”
