WhatsApp Web has now gained the picture-in-picture feature from the mobile app, according to a report by WABetaInfo,

This means that WhatsApp Web users will be able to watch videos that have been sent via an external link through a pop-up window within the chat itself.

All you have to do is tap the preview picture that loads when you receive/send the link.

The WhatsApp feature leak site also notes that video links from YouTube, Instagram, Streamable and Facebook are currently supported.

The feature is set to roll out with WhatsApp Web’s next update, namely version 0.3.2041.
