Mark Zuckerberg releases a new version of WhatsApp for Windows.

The new WhatsApp program for Windows, unveiled by Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, will allow group audio and video conversations for up to 32 participants, all from your desktop.

 

Introducing a new WhatsApp desktop version for Windows, he stated in his announcement on Facebook. You can now have phone calls with up to 32 individuals and E2E encrypted video chats with up to 8 people.

 

"The new Windows desktop app loads more quickly and has a Windows and WhatsApp-friendly layout. Group voice conversations can have up to 32 participants, and group video calls can have up to 8 participants. To ensure that you can always communicate with friends, family, and coworkers, we'll keep raising these limitations over time.

 

Since introducing the new multi-device capabilities, we have listened to user input and made adjustments, including quicker device connection and better syncing between devices, as well as additional features like link previews and stickers.

We recently unveiled a new WhatsApp beta experience for Android tablets as we work to expand the number of devices that support WhatsApp. We're also launching a new, quicker Mac desktop software, which is now in early beta," he added.
