WhatsApp confirms that it will take your calls to Windows Phone
The messaging application most widespread among users of smartphonescontinues to work on taking your calls to as many people as possible. And it is that the long-awaited function, which has been working on the Android platform for a few days for everyone, is still sorely lacking in iOS as in Windows Phone, where there is at least some detail and official statement about the work to be done are being carried out to get in direct and voice communication to all users
Now a new piece of information only confirms what was already intuited: WhatsApp is actively working on bringing this calling function to the Windows Phone platform as well Or at least that is what the medium WMPowerUser claims, where they have echoed a emailof the company that confirms such data. A document that suggests that this long-awaited calling function will not take too long to jump between platforms to be able to call any contact in the application for free.
Apparently, the aforementioned email arose in response to an understandable question from a user of the Windows Phone platform, who contacted contact WhatsApp to find out if the expected function would reach Microsoft's mobile operating system.In the statement, the company thanks the user for their interest, and confirms that they are working on the development of WhatsApp Calling or WhatsApp calls for Windows Phone Of course, they do not venture to give any date or any other relevant data that could give a clue as to how soon or late these calls may arrive.
And, unlike iPhone, we still haven't heard from 's calls WhatsApp on Windows Phone. Mobile users of Apple have already begun to receive the function in a very limited way, through the version beta or tests of WhatsApp, which can be accessed by doing Jailbreak to the terminal. In addition, one of its managers confirmed that users would only have to wait a few weeks before being able to enjoy them in a free and expanded way as happens in Android
However, for Windows Phone no dates have been made public, and it seems logical that they should be will be produced after the arrival for iPhone, thus being able to focus first on the other major platform before releasing the function on the Microsoft platformOf course, without losing sight of the fact that the tests for BlackBerry have already begun, opening the possibility for users to start calling each other.
In short, a new step in the slow and restrictive path that this highly anticipated feature is taking. And it is that it is still postulated as something very big, being able to change the current communication model if it ends up curdling among users who already use WhatsApp to send messages on a daily basis .At the moment we will have to continue waiting for the calls to reach the rest of the terminals in the market other than Android
