It appears that the popular messaging app, WhatsApp is working on a lot of new features to enhance its capabilities,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Out of them, one such feature is introducing an in-app dialer feature for beta users, allowing direct calls without saving contacts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

WhatsApp Introducing In-App Dialer Feature<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As per the speculations, this new feature is detailed in a report<\/a> by WABetaInfo, owned by Meta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with, the messaging app seems to be rolling out the in-app dialer feature to some beta users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This would further allow them to test the enhanced calling feature which is slated for inclusion in a future update.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the help of this feature, the users will be able to  directly place calls to  contacts without having to save their numbers in their smartphone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The news came out earlier too, but its precise method of implementation remained unclear then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But now is a different story as the latest report by WABetaInfo, the Meta-owned company talks about introducing a floating num-pad which can be used to place calls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For now, this new in-app dialer feature is available to some beta testers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They have installed the latest updates of WhatsApp beta for Android from the Google Play Store. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are wondering about the final release, this feature is rolling out with WhatsApp beta for Android version 2.24.13.17. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Does This New Feature Help?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is said that the built-in WhatsApp dialer may prove to be a game-changer for scenarios requiring temporary calls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider the case of the users who can quickly connect with colleagues or clients for brief discussions without saving numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides this, the users can also make a one-off call to customer service or a business for inquiries without adding them to the contacts list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further, the report mentioned, \u201cThis feature allows users to make calls directly, without the need to add contacts to their address book or manually open a conversation. Additionally, after entering a phone number, users also have the option to quickly save it to the address book as a new contact or add it to an existing contact card.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adding,\u201cA messaging shortcut is also available within the dialer screen, allowing users to quickly send a message to a screen, allowing users to quickly send a message to a<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0phone number they initially intended to dial but chose to message instead.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
