      Who asked for these things? Why does Sugarmountain think he needs to "improve" WhatsApp when it is already good? It is the only social media app I use and now it is bloated with shady privacy and AI stuff.

        "" The second feature is for incoming video calls. It allows you to turn off the camera before answering the video call.""

        This happened because video calling scams happened in India, in huge amounts where a woman in a compromised/no dress appears, they take a screenshot and then extort money from you, threatening to send the screenshot to your relatives.
        It's called "honey trap" here.

        The mic mute feature might've been implemented to prevent AI scams.

        Honestly what better spyware exists today than the operating system and meta apps?

          When WhatsApp fix a block a chat/calls for scammers? I always got a gambling chats in my country.

            Zebra123, 07 Apr 2025But still no username like Telegram and Signal. Phone numbe... moreDear WhatsApp you are close my account every time please help me and open it you don't close it thank you

              But still no username like Telegram and Signal. Phone number exposed and sold to everyone especially business and scammers, if I don't want to share it. Meta knows phone number is business. All of these are gimmicks.

                          Also, it would have been helpful if whatsapp bring scheduled messages in this or next updates.

                            mute is for either silence the ringing (doesn't end call) or mute this contact for certain period of time (like mute switch in android)

                            they should do separate contact/media save for whatsapp without giving access to phone's contact/storage. that would be a great privacy feature and allow signing with virtual number.

                            meta should relaunch their fb phone for business with all these features and social media posting/ad tools for marketing execs, leave the general userbase.

                                  If I saw a mute button on an incoming call, I'd think it would mute the ringing sound and the notification for the call, not answer it and mute my mic
