How WhatsApp changes for Windows
We are therefore talking about a standalone app, which must be downloaded from the Microsoft Storeit installs itself and goes to position itself in the system tray like all the others.
I changes are basically 3:
-
the speed would have been improved, because according to the company the program would now be “faster and more responsive”;
-
has changed theinterfaceso as to make it graphically much more similar to other apps in the Windows environment (and there is also the Dark Theme);
-
above all, they can be done video calls or voice-only calls with up to 8 or 32 people, respectively.
In short: you can possibly also organize business meetings. So much so that in the description it is mentioned that “messages and calls are protected by end-to-end encryption” and that “no one outside your chats, not even WhatsApp, can read or listen to its content”.
