WhatsApp calling has become a popular feature of the Facebook-owned messaging platform. Now, the company has added a new feature for smoother group calls.

Now users will be able to join a group video or voice call even after it’s started. So, even if you miss a group call initially when your phone rings, you can jump in anytime.

The joinable group calls will also allow you to drop off and rejoin a group WhatsApp call if the call is still going on. An Ignore button will let you ignore a call and join it from the Calls tab later.

The new feature is included in the WhatsApp for iOS beta version 2.21.140.11. It should arrive on the latest versions of WhatsApp for Android and iOS soon.
