After being in beta for a couple of months, the picture-in-picture mode during video calls on WhatsApp is now widely available. It draws a floating window with your video call over other apps, when the app is minimized. The feature is part of iOS version v23.3.77 that was just released.
Along with PiP, the changelog mentions a few other upgrades. You can add captions when sending documents, create personalized avatars and use them as stickers in chats. Support for longer descriptions for groups is also added. A staged rollout should bring new features to all users.
In the meantime, WhatsApp is working on a toggle for sending high-quality pictures. Instead of the standard compression, you can opt for the HD version that applies lighter compression.
