Overview
- WABetaInfo surfaced a settings screenshot showing an option to enable or disable desktop notifications for incoming calls in WhatsApp Web.
- The browser implementation is being designed to keep calls connected while users open or switch tabs.
- Voice and video calls are expected to carry end-to-end encryption consistent with WhatsApp’s desktop and mobile apps, according to reporting.
- The feature remains in development with no announced release timeline.
- Adding calling to the web client would close a long-standing gap, as Windows and macOS apps already support calls while WhatsApp Web has not.
