Download latest WhatsApp APK to start audio or video calls with 8 users

Through these years, we have seen WhatsApp evolve from a small texting app to a full fledged rich communication app. WhatsApp now has rich texts, emojis, voice calls, video calls, and not to mention the latest Dark Mode integration.
