Last February, WhatsApp promised she would add a feature to make voice calls to its popular instant messaging application. Although so far we had not had any information about such integration, today, if we are to believe a bunch of screenshots which is on the canvas, the functionality is almost there . The reports were made by Sander Tuit of AndroidWorld.nl, based on hidden code unearthed in the latest version of the application.

There are actually two versions of WhatsApp for Android: one distributed on the Google Play Store, and another hosted at WhatsApp. The screenshots you see later in this article were generated from the code found in the latest version, which often contains bug fixes and new features. For now, we have not had a release or an official response from WhatsApp, but the information could be relayed in the days or weeks ahead.
According to Sander Tuit, all options regarding an appeal will be somewhat removed from the rest of WhatsApp experience, with a separate screen displaying calls recently passed from the application. It seems that you will also be able to answer calls with preset text responses, and connect to Bluetooth headsets. There is also an option to record calls.
In the absence of comments from the WhatsApp team, we have no guarantee that these features will remain in their current form. Indeed, they could be completely removed. Anyway, they give us a good idea of where WhatsApp will take in 2015 .
In August, the CEO of the company announced that the application had reached the milestone of 600 million users, and the ability to make and receive calls from WhatsApp should further boost its base of users.
