WhatsApp provides convenient communication options, allowing users to connect with loved ones through messages, voice calls, and video calls. Meta, the company, behind WhatsApp has been working on improving the app’s calling functions, such as group calls and scheduling options. However, unlike mobile network calls, WhatsApp calls do not show up in the Phone app call log. There are signs that this might change soon.

WhatsApp Calls on Google Dialer Log

Reports suggest that WhatsApp is looking into combining its call list with the Google Phone app call log. A user on X first noticed this integration. Although details are scarce a leaked screenshot indicates that WhatsApp calls could be tagged as “WhatsApp” in the call log. This labeling would make it easier for users to distinguish between WhatsApp VoIP calls and regular phone calls.

To access this feature users may need to be using the beta version of the Google Phone app and wait for an update from Google’s servers. If WhatsApp VoIP calls start showing up in the Phone app call log this integration could potentially expand to calling apps like Skype, Viber, and Telegram. On iOS devices a similar integration already exists where third-party VoIP calls appear in the Phone app, on iPhones.

Selecting a call from the log lets you start a voice or video call away. For Android users, WhatsApp call records can only be viewed in the app’s “Calls” section at the moment. Connecting with the Google Phone app could simplify how WhatsApp calls are made, which would be helpful, for those who like using this mode of communication.

In addition to call log integration, WhatsApp is reportedly working on a favorites bar feature for the call log, allowing quick access to favorite contacts. This feature is currently in beta testing and may take some time before it becomes available in the stable release of the app.
