Watch Facebook and Instagram videos on WhatsApp
A long-awaited function by WhatsApp users: as you can see in the following GIF we can watch videos in the WhatsApp application without having to leave it, even if we scroll the screen . This function exists thanks to Picture in Picture, a novelty that came along with Android Nougat and that allows applications to overlap each other. That is, for example, if we leave Google Maps we can continue to have the destination map on one side of the screen always in view.
For now, only Facebook and Instagram (both applications owned by Mark Zuckerberg, who also treasures WhatsApp), from this new update, they have applied the new way of playing video.It is expected that more videos from other applications, such as YouTube, can be played directly on WhatsApp in the future.
