WhatsApp just announced it is rolling out new filters and backgrounds for users to customise their video calls.

There are 10 filters and 10 backgrounds to choose from. For example, you can create an artistic feel to your video call with the Warm, Cool, Black & White, Prism light, or Fisheye filters. As for backgrounds, you can hide your surroundings with options like Living Room, Office, Cafe, and Forest.

Aside from the new filters and backgrounds, WhatsApp will also allow users to enhance the look and brightness of the environment with Touch up and Low light options.

To access these new features, users have to select the effect icons on the top right of the screen during a 1:1 or group video call. WhatsApp says the new features are rolling out over the coming weeks, so keep your eyes peeled for the app update.
