WhatsApp introduces Missed call messages, new Status stickers, and more

WhatsApp will let users leave voice or video messages when calls go unanswered, eliminating traditional voicemail through a new missed call messaging feature launching in time for the holidays. The update is part of a broader feature release that includes interactive Status stickers, enhanced Meta AI image generation, and improved group video calls.

The missed call feature works automatically based on call type—voice calls trigger voice message prompts, while video calls offer video message options.
