A total of 3 million Dutch people made daily use of WhatsApp's video call option in the fourth quarter, according to the latest Dutch Apps Market report by Telecompaper. The figure was boosted by coronavirus-related lockdowns, with people spending more time on their smartphones, and more frequently. In the private sphere, the video calling function was mainly used to keep in touch with others. In addition to 3 million daily users, the function was used by 3 million at least once per week and by 2 million at least once per month.
