Meta-owned WhatsApp announced in one of their early updates, WhatsApp beta for Android 2.24.9.28 that WhatsApp is working on a new in-app dialer feature to make the user experience even better. Through this feature, WhatsApp aims to improve its user experience and allow users to make calls directly from WhatsApp without saving contacts in the address book.
It seems that WhatsApp is finally ready to release this update publically through some beta testers and get user feedback before rolling it out to everyone. According to WABetaInfo, the latest WhatsApp beta for Android 2.24.13.17, which is available to some beta testers, now has a floating action button within the calls tab. This feature has made it easy for users to make calls directly without saving contacts in the address book first.
Additionally, this feature lets users save numbers from within the dialer after entering the contact in the WhatsApp dialer. The dialer screen also has a messaging button that enables users to instantly message a phone number they were going to dial but decided to message instead. Since this feature will increase users’ efficiency when making calls straight from the app, I think this feature can bring a new level of convenience to the calling experience.
With fewer steps needed to save contacts or find specific chats, users may make calls more quickly, simplifying the process for new interactions.
To guarantee important contacts are always at hand, users have the option to immediately store crucial numbers in the address book while adding phone numbers using the in-app dialer.
Additionally, users can instantly determine whether they can use WhatsApp for that contact by receiving a notification from the feature if the provided phone number is registered on the messaging app. Some WhatsApp beta testers who installed the most recent upgrades from the Google Play Store can now access a new in-app dialer feature; more users will be able to access it in the coming days.
