It looks like in the coming weeks, your traditional WhatsApp video calls might get more attractive as the messaging platform is rolling out new filters and backgrounds, WhatsApp announced.
According to the company Post announcementusers will be able to apply filters and change the background for video calls on WhatsApp, which can add a personal touch. The filters are believed to create an exciting environment for users as they can create a “splash of colors” or a “more artistic feel” during video calls.
Background, on the other hand, aims to keep users’ original background space private and replace it with a cozy coffee shop or a cool-looking living room.
WhatsApp notes that it is adding ten new filters and ten different backgrounds for users. For filters, they can choose from “Warm, Cool, Black & White, Light Lake, Dreamy, Prism Light, Fisheye, Vintage TV, Frosted Glass, and Dove Tone.”
Background options include “Blur, Living Room, Office, Cafe, Peebles, Foodie, Smosh, Beach, Sunset, Celebration and Jungle”.
Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg shared some of these features on his WhatsApp platform. According to Zuckerberg’s photos, the interface should look a lot like what we’re used to with Instagram and Snapchat filters and background options.
