How to Blur Background in WhatsApp Video Calls on iPhones and Samsung Galaxy Phones

[@msm311y]

Finally fixed this. For samsung users, start a video call in WhatsApp then swipe down and down again and you should see a button called "video effects" top left hand side. Select that and some buttons will pop up on the screen. Fro. There you ca. Play around with the settings. Well this worked for me, june 2024

Genius thanks a bunch! With all the new features it is becoming more complicated to access/use them. Talk about easing lives!

That "now let us move to the android side of things" felt personal...😂😂😂

[@turabalikhan1341]

can we do it on WhatsApp web or WhatsApp for PC?

The portrait mode on iPhone renders the background a bit blurry but not enough to make it indecipherable unfortunately. It would be useful for Whatsapp to add the blurry background feature to the app.

This helped me turn this fearure back on after removing it on accident.

Does “Effects” only appear when you are on a WhatsApp video call because I swiped down and it is not on my control centre

[@xobex5789]

The first time I had a video call on my new Samsung Galaxy I noticed that camera feature in the middle of my screen and put the blurry background, but after that I never saw the camera feature again and now I can't remove the blurriness. How do I make the camera feature reappear?
