WhatsApp introduces instant video mugs
Miscellaneous / / July 27, 2023
Like in Telegram back in 2017.
Whatsapp appeared instant video messages in the form of a circle. The duration of such messages is limited to 60 seconds.
Sending a video message is as easy as sending a voice message. You need to press the microphone button at the bottom of the screen, switch to video and hold the icon. If you hold it down and pull it up, then the recording mode will be saved, as it were. That is, the button can be released.
Videos play automatically when opening a conversation, but without sound. To listen to them, you need to touch the "circle". It is noted that all of them are protected by end-to-end encryption, like the rest of the messages in the messenger.
The feature has already begun rolling out to WhatsApp users. In the coming weeks, it should reach all devices, the developers promise.
Recall, "video mugs” appeared on Telegram back in 2017.
