Answering Whatsapp call

[Naughty9795]

I cannot pick up Whatsapp calls like normal calls by the steering wheel button. Any solution for this?

What car? What HU? Which mode, BT or carplay/AA?

So far all my calls can be answered via BT, incl my MS teams work calls. Cannot rem if any WA calls though, cuz I hate to speak through apps and tell my family to call not to use that to call me. 😄

My WA/Messenger calls only can answer via the HU/MMI..

I got a diff problem. When my WA is open on the comp, and a WA call comes in, neither party can hear when the phone is answered. 

Is there a setting to choose so that all calls are phone answered by default?

Cos it is easier. To call straight from the message thread.

My car got a built-in BT module.

No problem picking up call through WA.

It is as clear as a Local call.

Its not whether your car's BT module is how good. Generally, WhatsApp calls are not good.

All my WhatsApp calls are not good even local.

Work in the construction industry and mostly my clients like to call me using WhatsApp as they have more data then mins I guess. Always have to resort to calling them back to fully understand what's the call is all about.

But WhatsApp has the most ''Love'' Scam Messages...most of them +852...Hong Kong.?

Whether calls are clear or not, is network dependent.

But WA calls are definitely laggy. Try singing a song together and you know.

Like that how to talk.

Usually if I am using 4G network, it works just fine. I usually have a problem with WA call using WIFI, so if the connection is bad, I will just switch off my WIFI.
