WhatsApp has also made a slight tweak to the visual appearance of the chat screen, and we are glad that this change has happened. The new WhatsApp update also adds call waiting support, which means you will now be notified about another incoming call even though you may already be on a WhatsApp call-and it is up to you to accept that call or not.

If you select the last option, the admins who want to add you to their groups on WhatsApp will be able to send you a private invite instead. As a user, you can now choose between Everyone, My Contacts, My Contacts Except… and Nobody. There are new privacy settings which allow the user to control who can add them to groups on WhatsApp. There are new privacy settings, more versatile WhatsApp call notifications and also the “from Facebook” branding on the settings page. The latest WhatsApp update for iOS is now available on the App Store.
