The last two news of WhatsApp in Spain They have been the advanced privacy of the chat and the official chat to be aware of the latest updates or notices about scams. Now the most installed chat app has been updated with the redesign of the active call interface in group chats.
An discord type experience so that the active call can be entered while chatting or shared content. Until now, the Call indicator had been located at the top In the bar, which hindered in some way the visual experience and even gave the feeling of being a bit outdated.
Now the change is total And it goes to the thread of the new icons that indicate that the contact is “writing” or that it is creating a voice note, since the active call bar goes directly to place the field from which we type the chat message. Just in the same place as those two indicators at the bottom of the screen.
It remains fixed And it allows to deactivate the microphone, see who are connected to their icon (if they are already several only shows the number of call participants), the icon of wanting to speak and the fourth button to get out of the call.
This change in the interface, apart from integrating better with the “writing” and voice note indicators and offering a more modern design, has another objective, than It’s easier to enter a call Being located right at the bottom of the app, at the stroke of finger without having to extend the finger if we keep the mobile with our hand.

The free android
It is an update that It is already available in Spain Through iOS on an iPhone, although it has not yet been deployed in Android mobiles. At least, in our Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra does not appear active, so it will be a matter of waiting for WhatsApp to make it available on Android, since it encourages to enter an active call more easily than with the previous interface.
The objective of this experience, since it was launched almost two years ago in Spain, is Like discord. The platform that in its beginnings was used primarily by Gamers, allows you to enter a voice channel at all times to participate in group calls while using the other chat channels per subject.
The free android
It is not a totally identical experience, but it does like it in part, so the novelty already available in Spain will allow even more modern with the fixed indicator in the lower part of the chat and it is very easy to enter the call when touching it.
