WhatsApp has started to roll out an iOS 24.9.10.75 version update. Under the update, a camera zoom control feature is being rolled out by WhatsApp, and select beta testers can test it out now.

It seems like WhatsApp is working to enhance the camera experience by introducing new features aimed at enhancing user convenience and providing users with easier methods to share and record video. WhatsApp is working on the development of zooming in and out when using the iOS in-app camera to take pictures and record videos.

According to a report by WABetaInfo, WhatsApp is currently rolling out a zoom control function for the camera after installing the most recent WhatsApp beta for iOS 24.9.10.75 update, which is accessible on the TestFlight app.

As shown in the shared screenshot some of the beta testers are able to play with a new button that allows iPhone users to smoothly adjust the zoom level. Prior to the changes, WhatsApp users for iOS were able to swipe up or down while holding their finger on the camera button in order to adjust the zoom level while recording, which could have produced inaccurate results.

With the new iOS camera zoom control feature users now have more control over creating photo and video content, therefore making it simpler to adjust the zoom without stopping the recording. Also, it eliminates the need for users to struggle with the camera button to adjust the zoom—just a simple touch. This will give users more control over the zoom level, improving precision by enabling them to get the exact shot they want.
