“With the new WhatsApp app for Mac, users can now make group calls from Mac for the first time, connecting with up to 8 people on video calls and up to 32 people on audio calls. They can join a group call after it’s started, see call history and choose to receive incoming call notifications even when the app is closed,” WhatsApp said in a blogpost on Tuesday.
According to the company, the app is redesigned to be familiar to Mac users, helping users to get more done faster when using WhatsApp on a large screen.
They can now share files by easily dragging and dropping into a chat and can view more of the chat history.
When using WhatsApp on any device, WhatsApp for Mac keeps personal messages and calls private across devices with end-to-end encryption.
