Users can now initiate group calls with up to 15 people using WhatsApp

Up to 15 people will now be able to join a group conversation at the beginning of the session and speak, according to reports about the new feature being introduced by the Meta-owned instant messaging app WhatsApp. WhatsApp is constantly introducing new features and updating its user interface. According to the claims, WhatsApp will more than double the number of persons who can join the call at the beginning.

A group call could hold 32 people, but only 7 could join at the beginning, CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in November. The most recent beta of Android 2.23.15.14 now allows the application to start a call with up to 15 persons.

In November 2022, Mark Zuckerberg made a similar disclosure regarding this technology and declared that 32-person calling was at last accessible to everyone. However, only up to seven connections could be used to start a group call. Users can start calls with up to 15 participants using the most recent version of WhatsApp for Android, 2.23.15.14, which is available on the Google Play Store, according to WABetaInfo’s report.

According to the report, certain individuals can now initiate a group call with up to 15 other users and allow additional users to join the conversation. Simply put, the call that started out with 7 users has grown to 15 users, and it can still support up to 32 users total. The business hopes to improve the convenience of group calls and the call creation procedure with this update.

The functionality is currently in beta testing and is expected to be made available to the general public with next updates. For improved protection, increased safety, and access to new features, we suggest you to keep your WhatsApp updated.
