WhatsApp will remind you about missed calls#
September 2, 2025
WhatsApp continues to develop reminder functionality to help users stay organized. The latest WhatsApp beta version 2.25.22.5 for Android introduces the ability to create reminders for missed calls.

How it works#
Some beta testers can already set a reminder for a missed call directly from the chat where it was made. Now, in the missed call entry, there is a special option that allows you to schedule a reminder. You can also create a reminder directly from the Calls tab by selecting the missed call.
Why it is needed#
This feature makes it easy to call back missed calls that you couldn’t answer right away. Now you can schedule a reminder for a convenient time and not forget about an important call.
This functionality is especially useful in situations where the user is in a meeting, on the road, or cannot answer immediately but does not want to forget to call back later. For example, you may receive a missed call from a family member during work hours and want to be reminded to call back in the evening. Or, a user may miss a call from a client and prefer to schedule a reminder after completing the current task to ensure a timely response.
When creating a missed call reminder, users are offered convenient preset time slots such as “in 2 hours,” “in 8 hours,” or “the next day,” which are perfect for quick scheduling. In addition, users can select a fully customizable date and time if they need to align the reminder with their availability, meetings, or other personal plans.
At the selected time, WhatsApp will display a special notification reminding the user of the missed call. The notification includes the caller's name, profile photo, and a direct link to open the conversation in which the reminder was created.
Like message reminders, call reminders are handled entirely on the device and remain private.
Accessibility#
The missed call reminder feature is available to some beta testers who have installed the latest WhatsApp beta for Android updates from the Google Play Store, and will be rolling out to more people in the coming weeks.
WhatsApp previously had a feature called reminders for messages in a chat. It allowed users to set alerts for specific messages in a conversation, helping them return to important content at a chosen time.
Conclusion#
The new missed call reminder feature is another step towards a more convenient and organized interaction for WhatsApp. Now users can easily track and call back important missed calls without relying on their memory.
