WhatsApp increased the number of participants in a group call to 8.
WhatsApp which is one of the most used applications in the world, its developers worked on a new update that will allow to increase the limit of group calls.
WhatsApp increased the maximum number of participants in video calls, the function reached iOS and Android finally, it has made an appearance in the stable version, WhatsApp already allows video calls with up to eight participants in the latest version of the app.
The stable version.
Now available on Android in the case of Android, the stable version that includes video calls with up to eight participants and the You can download visiting Google Play Store, In iOS the process is similar. All we have to do is update to the latest version of WhatsApp, something that is as simple as going to App Store and check if there is a pending update.
Latest version installed.
Having the update installed on the mobile, it is likely that we will not be able to start making video calls with up to eight people, it is necessary that each and every one of the users who will participate in the video call must have the latest version of WhatsApp installed (2.20. 50 on iOS, 2.20.141 on Android). If they do not have it, the limit will continue to be up to four people, so you will have to wait for the update to reach all devices or that in some way each user does the update.
I am a WhatsApp user all my family, friends and coworkers use WhatsApp, to communicate with each other, especially to be in contact with many family members who managed to flee Venezuela in the midst of this terrible situation, which we are suffering, WhatsApp is a window to speak and see those loved ones who are not with us.
This situation on the one hand of the reality of Venezuelans who are not in Venezuela, but now the covid-19 virus is also added has caused total and extreme confinement worldwide, and WhatsApp again keeps us in touch with our loved ones and The best that video calls increased from 4 to 8 at the same time.
I have already tried how it works and it is great to be able to be connected with my teacher friends who are outside Venezuela, and some family members who are in other cities but within Venezuela.
Simply put, communication technology is great, taking giant steps to satisfy users in their multiple needs, as the need to communicate combines technology to achieve new things that benefit everyone.

Hello @lanzjoseg I think this new feature is spectacular, it is true whatsapp has become I think the best application of all, I do not think there is a smart phone that does not have it, and as you say has brought us closer, in these moments of pandemic not having it would be something catastrophic, we could not communicate with our loved ones, in my case is my only communication with my mom at this time, so for me it is essential.
As long as the application is renewed I think we will have whatsapp for a long time. I almost don't use video calls if I'm honest I think only with my mom and my best friend from rest, just chat.
As always, technology brings families closer together.
Thanks for visiting my post, Dreamer.
This is a great improvement, I have not tried it out yet but I think it is needed in the midst of this lockdown and movement restriction to help loved ones hang out with each other.
I invite you to use it, it is great to be able to connect with other friends.
@lanzjoseg its a nice news thanks for informing us , this is because people are in lockdown and we are working from work from home.
Yes, you are right I can tell you that I have had meetings with my coworkers where I am the boss to refine some cases of the payroll and those meetings are with video calls.
Gradually, WhatsApp is trying to meet up with Zoom. If they make the number higher, they will surely get the users since a lot of people can easily access WhatsApp to Zoom.
I am a very frequent WhatsApp user, I have never used Zoom.
and all my circle of family and friends and also coworkers we use WhatsApp
Tech is becoming impressive but even in it beauty, the privacy issues still remain. It is true that WhatsApp is growing their number of groups in their video calls but my fear has always been privacy. Anything owned by facebook is a data thief so i do not really like them.
You are right, privacy is very important, but I tell you something, if you have a Google account, from the first moment you opened your Gmail account, from that moment you lost your privacy.
