Common Mistakes to Avoid
1. Incorrect Background Selection
Reason: Choosing a blurry or poorly lit background image can result in a distracting or unprofessional appearance during video calls, even with the blur effect applied.
Solution: Select a high-resolution, well-lit background image or a solid color for optimal results.
2. Forgetting to Enable the Feature
Reason: Many users may assume the background blur is enabled by default or overlook the settings menu where the feature needs to be activated.
Solution: Ensure the background blur or virtual background feature is explicitly enabled in the WhatsApp settings before making a call.
