WhatsApp Web gets Picture in Picture feature

New Delhi : A much-awaited Picture in Picture update for WhatsApp Web has now been rolled out for all user across the world.

For now, the PiP mode will only work on shared videos with support for Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram videos. The same was rolled out for Android and iOS apps apparently an year ago and now it works for all videos shared on the social networking app.

WABetaInfo reports that WhatsApp is now rolling PiP mode gradually for WhatsApp Web users globally. The feature has been enabled with the latest version 0.3.1846, and the user doesn't need to manually install this update.

Interestingly, WhatsApp Web gets the new feature as soon as the user logs in. In order to double check if you are on version 0.3.1846, head to WhatsApp Web > Settings > Help. If you're on an older version of WhatsApp Web, then try clearing the cache and restart the service.

While iPhone users had PiP mode enabled since January this year, all Android users got it via an update just a few days ago. The feature was in beta for Android users since October.
