Upcoming Google Phone App Update to Include WhatsApp Call History and Video Calling Shortcut
Google is reportedly testing new features for its Phone app, including integrating WhatsApp call history with regular calls and adding a video call shortcut to Google Meet. These features seem to be rolled out to a select group of users in the Android Beta Program. The new updates come after Google recently introduced new features for Google Drive as well.
According to reports from 9to5Google, some users have noticed the integration of WhatsApp call history into the Google Phone app. Screenshots shared by users show a separate call log labeled ‘WhatsApp’ with carrier and channel details. It remains unclear if this feature will support other messaging apps like Telegram and Signal.
Another new feature spotted by tipster Mishaal Rahman involves a video call shortcut that directs calls to Google Meet. This feature, seen on the Google Pixel 5a, allows users to quickly initiate a Google Meet call during a phone call. While the Phone app already supports Google Meet calls, this new shortcut simplifies the process for users.
The user who first noticed the WhatsApp call history integration confirmed being a beta tester running specific versions of both the Google Phone app and WhatsApp. The features are gradually being introduced to users, with some already experiencing the new functionalities. It is yet to be seen if these features will be officially rolled out to all users in the future.
