From Voice Chats to music on Status — What’s New on whatsapp This Holi
As the festival of holi approaches, whatsapp has introduced several exciting updates to make communication more fun, expressive, and easier for users around the world. These new features aren’t just flashy additions — they focus on practical improvements for everyday use and festive sharing.
🎙️ Group Voice Chats for Better Conversations
One of the most useful new features is voice chat within group chats. Instead of exchanging long text messages or calling everyone one-by-one, users can now start a live voice chat space that others can join when they’re available. It’s a quieter, more flexible way to coordinate plans and talk with friends or family — especially helpful during busy festival planning.
🎶 Add music to Status Updates
WhatsApp now lets users add music to their Status posts, giving photos and videos more life and personality. This feature works similarly to music status on other social platforms — you can choose a song or track to play along with your visual content and share your festive mood with friends.
📅 Scheduled Calls for Better Planning
A simple but handy feature rolling out now is scheduled voice or video calls. Users can plan calls ahead of time, send invites, and the app will remind everyone when it’s time to join. This is great for coordinating catch-ups with family or group discussions before or after holi celebrations.
📌 Improved Group Tools
Several smaller but meaningful updates also come with this release:
- Member Tags to highlight roles in group chats
- Event Reminders that keep important plans visible
- Convert Messages Into Stickers for quick sharing of key points
These improvements help make group communication smoother and more organized.
📸 More Creative Status Features
In addition to music, whatsapp has enhanced the Status feature with creative tools like photo collages, layout options, and interactive “Add Yours” prompts — perfect for festive moments and engaging with friends online.
Conclusion
This holi, whatsapp isn’t just about sending colourful emojis — it’s about making communication richer and more expressive. From voice chats that simplify planning to music-enhanced Status updates that capture festive vibes, these updates aim to bring users closer during the celebrations and make everyday messaging more fun and intuitive.
