WhatsApp seems to be closer to rolling out its new in-call UI. We saw a new call UI implementation of the popular instant messaging app for iOS earlier this year. A new report now shows how the new call interface looks on Android. Here’s all you need to know about it.
A new report by WABetaInfo suggests that the app will be implementing a grey square in the middle of the screen during calls. The UI buttons which let you switch to speaker (hands-free) mode, switch to video call, mute yourself and end the call are still placed below the screen.
We can also see that during 1-on-1 calls, the grey square will show the name of the contact you’re speaking to, as well as the duration of the call below it. Below these two elements will be a large circle showing the profile picture of the user.
We can even see a small mute button on the bottom right of the grey card, not to be confused with the mute button on the bottom row. This can likely be used to mute the other party without ending the call.
