The new feature is still under development; however, we can expect this new feature to be available soon in the future. The mute video feature is already available on other social media platforms including Instagram, Twitter.

Besides, WhatsApp is also working on the 'Read Later' feature which is spotted on the WhatsApp 2.20.130.1 beta for iOS.
