This great feature of WhatsApp will make your work easy, you will make a call to your desired number instantly.

Recently WhatsApp is testing a new feature, which is being released for beta users on iOS. The new Favorite Contact feature is being introduced to make the calling experience better and faster. The new feature has been spotted by WhatsApp beta tracking website WABetaInfo. This will allow users to set a favorite contact, which will appear at the top of the calls tab. WhatsApp users can make video or voice calls with their favorite contacts by tapping on them. This makes calling family and friends faster and easier.

By letting users set favorite contacts at the top of the calls tab, WhatsApp is making it clear that important contacts are front and center in the calling interface. One tap calling capability makes sure that the full WhatsApp calling experience becomes better and more convenient. We can safely assume that users will be able to choose between a voice or video call when they tap on a favorite contact.

However, it is not yet clear how users will be able to set favorite contacts in it. But you can see in the background of the screenshot that this call can be made from the tab. It would be safe to assume that users will be able to long press on a contact to set it as a favorite contact. Once a contact is added to your favourites, it will appear at the top of the calls tab. Users can simply tap on a favorite contact at the top to start a call with them.

This feature is not live for all users and hence we will have to wait for the official statement of WhatsApp on this. WhatsApp has recently started community pinned events for beta users on Android.
