How to video call with Whatsapp Web

Video calling with Whatsapp Web

In today’s guide I want to answer a question that is increasingly asked to me by Teknologya readers and related to the famous Whatsapp instant messaging app.

The question, without too many words, is related to Whatsapp Web, the internet site of the app that allows you to chat even from Windows and Mac PCs in an extremely convenient way thanks to the possibility of using the keyboard to write messages.

The question

In particular, the question I want to answer today is the following: is it possible to make video calls with Whatsapp Web? Is there a possibility to make a video call with Whatsapp Web?

On the internet I see that many users are constantly asking themselves this question, but at the moment there is no comprehensive and clear official answer.

So I decided to publish an article to clarify this.

The answer

Without too many words, currently the answer is NO.

It is not possible to make or receive video calls on Whatsapp Web, at least for now.

Today with Whatsapp Web we can send and receive chat messages, send and play videos and photos, record and play voice messages, send and receive documents, but we can neither call nor video call.

So if you want to make a video call with Whatsapp, you must necessarily use your smartphone.

Perhaps in the future Whatsapp Web will allow you to make and receive video calls, but at the moment it is not possible to do so.

In case of news we will obviously update the article and publish the dedicated guide.
