The much-anticipated video calling feature has finally been added to instant messaging app, WhatsApp.

According to Android Authority, the latest feature is only accessible when your WhatsApp application is updated to the WhatsApp beta version.

WhatsApp had earlier added the voice call feature in March 2015 and has now included video calls.

Users only have to tap on the call button during a chat, and then a dialogue box will pop-up asking if you want to place a voice call or video call.

The app will now compete with Skype and FaceTime on iOS.
