WhatsApp has announced that in the coming weeks, it will upgrade WhatsApp (mostly like the WhatsApp app for Android and iOS) to offer ten backgrounds and ten filters for video calls, allowing you to change your background or add a filter during a video call to make them more fun.

The names of the ten backgrounds are Blur, Living Room, Office, Cafe, Pebbles, Foodie, Smoosh, Beach, Sunset, Celebration, and Forest. The names of the ten filters are Warm, Cool, Black & White, Light Leak, Dreamy, Prism Light, Fisheye, Vintage TV, Frosted Glass, and Duo Tone.

The story continues after the video…

Along with backgrounds and filters, WhatsApp will also offer ‘Touch Up’ and ‘Low Light’ options that can “help you feel more confident and comfortable by naturally enhancing the look and brightness of your environment, making your video calls more vibrant and enjoyable.

You will be able to use background, filters, Touch Up, and Low Light options during 1:1 or group video calls. To access these features, “select the effects icons on top right of the screen to see the selection of filters and backgrounds and choose the one that suits your mood.
