By the end of this video, you'll be able to easily have group conversations with friends, family, and more. An iPhone SE was used along with the latest version of WhatsApp.

️ 0:28 ABOUT WHATSAPP
Now that many people use WhatsApp, it is easy to use.

‼ 0:35 ABOUT WHATSAPP GROUPS
But what about groups? WhatsApp has features that allow users to make group video and audio calls. What's surprising is that many people don't know that you can have group conversations on WhatsApp. Group Calling now allows up to 8 participants to call or video chat and share group messages. It's a fantastic way to keep in touch.

First of all, always make sure you have the latest version of WhatsApp on your phone. Please note: On Android phones, video calling is only available on Android 4.1. Secondly, if you use WhatsApp to make video calls in particular, keep in mind that this can use quite a lot of data.
