In an effort to enhance user experience the popular messaging platform WhatsApp is reportedly working on adding two requested features. An in app number dialer and concealed groups. If these updates are rolled out users will have options for making calls and engaging in group chats directly within the WhatsApp mobile application.
The discovery of the in app dialer during beta testing implies that WhatsApp might soon enable users to call contacts without having to save their numbers first. This feature would offer a way to connect with new contacts without cluttering up the address book. Similarly the development of groups aims to provide members with a private space, for sharing content discreetly without their group being visible publicly.

It remains to be seen how these new features will perform in reality. Considering WhatsApps commitment to continuously improving based on user feedback these updates may offer a personalized approach to fully utilize the capabilities of this popular mobile messaging platform. Whether for professional purposes improved calling and group options could elevate WhatsApp as an essential communication tool.
