    The WhatsApp voice calling feature is currently live and has been officially made available to all BlackBerry 10 users. The update; version 2.12.1.2 includes several other bug fixes and improvements, including the ability to instantly search for individual messages (as well as chats and contacts), improved font scaling, and custom ringtone selection.

    However, the newest version of the app allows all BlackBerry users to make VoIP calls to their friends and contacts for free, even if they are in another country, as long as they are on Wi-Fi, not a cellular network.

    In highlights, these are there features below:

    WhatsApp version 2.12.1.2

    • WhatsApp Calling: Call your friends and family using WhatsApp for free, even if they’re in another country. WhatsApp calls use your phone’s Internet connection rather than your cellular plan’s voice minutes. Data charges may apply.
    • You can now instantly search for individual messages, chats and contacts just by tapping the search action from the chats list. (Note: It may take a few days before this feature is available to you.)
    • Improved font scaling to better match the system display font size setting.n• Font and highlighting updates to better match the system style on OS 10.3
    • Improved support for focus and navigation on the BlackBerry Classic
    • Location messages now show a larger map preview
    • Added “Add to Contacts” context actions to the chats list (for chats with unknown contacts) and to the group info screen (for unknown group participants)
    • Added custom ringtone selection for incoming WhatsApp calls (Settings, Notification Settings, Call notifications)
    • Added year/month subdirectories for received pictures, and WhatsApp-specific subdirectories for received audio and video
    • Added counts to the Favs/Groups/Contacts tabs when pulling down the list past the beginning
    • Miscellaneous fixes and updates

    Download WhatsApp v2.12.1.2 from BlackBerry World to get started with the calling feature. Keep in mind if you are beta user, you will have to delete the current beta to download the official app.
