How to set up a WhatsApp schedule group call

To set up scheduled group calls within your groups on WhatsApp:

• Simply tap the call button.
• You will have the option to pick a call subject and choose the date for the scheduled call.
• Additionally, you can decide whether it will be a video or voice group call.
• After making your choices, tap 'Send.' WhatsApp will then dispatch a message to the group.
• An event will automatically be inserted into the group chat when you schedule the group call.
• Those who opt to participate will receive a notification 15 minutes before the call begins.

On the other hand, the platform has recently rolled out the screen share feature on video calls. This indicates that during a WhatsApp video call, you now have the ability to share a real-time view of your screen. The feature has recently been introduced, so it will gradually become accessible to all users. It's accessible on WhatsApp across mobile devices, desktops, and tablets.
