“New for WhatsApp — we’re adding the ability to instantly record and share a video message in your WhatsApp chats. It’s as easy as sending a quick voice message,” Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in a blog post.
The new feature will enable users to send videos as easily as voice messages on the app.
Meta said in a statement that it has begun rolling out the feature and it will be available to everyone in the coming weeks. Video messages are a real-time way to respond to chats with whatever you want to say and show in 60 seconds, the statement added.
How can users send a video message?
To send an instant video message, users need to tap on the voice record icon at the right corner of a chat to switch on the video recording mode.
