It happens when the voice or Video Call button gets tapped accidentally while you are chatting with someone. For many years lots of users have demanded WhatsApp introduce a Confirmation alert feature before placing a call. In fact, this feature is already present but it is visible only while making the first attempt at a WhatsApp voice call.
As it is quite irritating to tap a button twice for performing the same action, WhatsApp provides you with functionality to avoid this. Every time you want to make a WhatsApp call you need to tap on the ‘Call’ button and then on ‘Yes’ within the confirmation alert.

How will the Call countdown feature work?
The WhatsApp news portal has also released a screenshot of the concept. In the screenshot, it is seen that every time you will place a WhatsApp call the platform will start a countdown of 3 seconds. The call will start after the countdown ends.
However, it may be annoying to wait for three seconds every time you want to make a call. The platform may have a particular method to force stop this countdown and start the call immediately. For example, you take your mobile near your ear and WhatsApp detects it with a proximity sensor then places the call at once without waiting for the countdown.
This Call Countdown feature is concluded to be helpful as you can end a call quickly that you placed by mistake. Thankfully the recipient won’t even get notified about this accidental call. As mentioned earlier this is just a concept made by WAbetaInfo and not a genuine WhatsApp feature.
