WhatsApp seems to be working on a new feature that makes it easier to start chats with numbers that aren’t in your contact list. In fact, the feature allows you to start a chat with a new number straight from another chat, according to the ever-reliable WABetaInfo.
With the current iteration, tapping on a phone number sent through a chat on WhatsApp will lead you straight to the dialer app, so you can call that number or save them to your address book. The change sees a pop-up dialog that checks whether or not the number is associated with a WhatsApp account and gives you the option to start a chat right away.
WhatsApp has made some major improvements as of late, with the addition of new tools for voice messaging. The platform is also testing out a new 2GB file sharing size limit, group polls, and unfortunately, backups could soon no longer be exempt from your Google Drive storage quota.
