WhatsApp , the current leader on Instant Messaging (IM), just after a short time release of WhatsApp Web, the app released a new feature that allows users to make free phone calls over the Internet, instead of the previously just messaging feature. This service is one of the most popular mobile apps worldwide with 700 million active users per month.
Currently the calling feature will be available only for Invited Users , because the calling feature is still in beta stage and improving at its best. The WhatsApp currently testing by sending the Invites since Feb 20th, so some of the users got the calling feature 🙂 whereas some of the users still trying to grab it 🙁 . Officially the WhatsApp calling feature will be rolled out soon, because since last Saturday the invite system has been closed.
The calling feature is limited for the Android users only :), if you aren’t android user, the just wait till the official release to be rolled out for all the platforms.
