WABetaInfo, a website that tracks news and updates related to WhatsApp, reported in November last year that the Meta-owned platform is working on a ‘camera mode.’ Now, in a fresh update, the website has revealed that the feature has already been rolled out on a previous version of WhatsApp beta for Android, and an iOS version will be released soon.

To explain how the camera mode will work on iOS, WABetaInfo shared this screenshot:
At present, you have to tap and hold to record a video, and it becomes inconvenient when you have to record a longer video, as you have to tap and hold for a long time/ However, as seen in the above screenshot, users will be able to switch from camera to video mode with just a tap, thus making it simple and easier to record long videos.
For iOS, the camera mode is a feature under development and will be released for a future update of the app. As always, however, it will be made available to select beta testers before a wider public launch takes place.
