• WhatsApp is rolling out a few new call features for desktop and mobile.
• Group chat members can now select specific participants they want to call to avoid disrupting everyone.
• Calls on desktop and video calls are getting some improvements.

There are times when being in a group chat makes sense, but it can often be annoying. If someone in the group calls, every single person in the group is notified. However, WhatsApp is rolling out a change that should make being a part of a group chat less irksome.

Today, WhatsApp announced that it is introducing a handful of new call features and improvements for desktop and mobile. Arguably, the most interesting of these is the reveal of a new feature for group chats. Users can now select which members of the group chat they want to call. So if you don’t want to alert everybody in the group, you can choose exactly which of your friends you want to reach out to without bothering the rest.
