WhatsApp is possibly the best instant messaging application available right now, but the company is not looking to settle down anytime soon. The Facebook-owned company today pushed a new update to its iOS users with version number 2.18.30, which added the much-awaited time and location stickers to the photo editing tools. But that's not all, this update comes with a lot of hidden features, which WhatsApp will enable in the upcoming updates. After starting its work on group calls for Android, WhatsApp has finally started working on group calls feature for iOS as well, meaning Apple iPhone users will also get this feature in the first phase itself.

Also, the 2.18.30 update allows users to search for a participant right from the group info itself, a nice little feature to have around. This feature was introduced in WhatsApp Android version a couple of weeks ago. Here's the official changelog of the WhatsApp 2.18.30 for iOS:
