“WhatsApp Calling for your platform is still in the works. Unfortunately, we cannot comment on any future release timelines but we appreciate your interest in WhatsApp Calling.”

Even without giving us an exact date, it looks like WhatsApp is busy working on its VOIP calling feature for its Windows Phone app. This conclusion is based on a collection of phrases we have seen that are intended to be translated.
