WhatsApp is in the process of starting voice calling feature for Android, iOS, Windows Phone and other mobile operating system platform. Since the launch of the WhatsApp Call feature, it has been available to the users on invitation basis only. However, fresh reports reveal that the said feature is now available for Android users without any invitation.

WhatsApp Call For Android

According to Android Police, by installing WhatsApp with version number 2.12.19 from Google Play Store, Android users can make use of the voice calling feature. The other option is to download the APK file of WhatsApp and install it after enabling Unknown sources in Security Settings. Alternatively, users can install the latest edition of WhatsApp from its official website.

Since calls made through WhatsApp are not traditional phone calls but are calls made over the internet. Hence, WhatsAap recommends its users to use an unlimited data plan. WhatsApp Call will only work on Android devices having v2.1 or higher.

For users who can’t wait for WhatsApp to activate voice calling for iOS devices, The Fuse Joplin has suggested the following steps on a jailbroken device:

• Download and install AppSyn and then also install the latest Whatsapp BETA version.
  
• The next step requires users to add repositories cydia.angelxwind.net and apk.imokhles.com to Cydia sources.
  
• Download and install WhatsApp Call Enabler and activate it through settings on WhatsApp.
  
• After completing the above steps, iOS users are required to find someone who has already activated the WhatsApp Call feature and ask him to make a voice call through WhatsApp.
  
• After receiving the call, users are required to restart their devices and launch the app again. WhatsApp Call feature will now show up on the user interface of the app.
