WhatsApp from Meta is a free messaging and calling app used by over 2 billion people across 180+ countries. It's super simple, reliable and private, making it perfect for staying in touch with your friends and family worldwide. WhatsApp works across mobile, tablet, and desktop even on slow connections, with no subscription fees*.
Private messaging and calls across the world
Your privacy is our priority. With end-to-end encryption, you can be sure that your personal messages and calls stay between you and who you send them to. And no one, not even WhatsApp, can read or listen to them.
Simple and secure connections, right away
All you need is your phone number - no usernames or logins needed. Easily view your contacts on WhatsApp and start messaging. And what's more, you can easily link your other devices, including iPads, for seamless connectivity.
High quality voice and video calls
Enjoy free, secure video and voice calls with up to 32 people for free. Your calls work across devices, even on slower connections, using your phone or tablet’s Internet service.
Group chats to keep you in contact
Stay close to friends and family through end-to-end encrypted group chats and calls. Share messages, photos, videos and documents across mobile, tablet, and desktop. You can also use call links and screen-sharing to make group calls and collaboration easy.
Stay connected in real time
You can share your location with those in your individual or group chats while using WhatsApp on your mobile phone. Or record a voice message for those moments when just text isn't good enough.
Share daily moments through Status
Share your everyday life with those who matter. With Status you can share text, photos, video, and GIF updates that disappear after 24 hours. You're always in control of who sees your status. Just choose who you want to share it with - all your contacts or selected ones. And bring your everyday to life.

hello, first i can say that there is no bug report via app. it’s not a good point. at the moment i have found 2 bugs but i can’t report them within app. that would be good if there is a bug report option in application. also i would like to explain which bugs i have found. First: Clear All Messages Bug well when you try to delete all messages in any group it deletes all messages but when you try to switch chat i mean go back and try to click another chat it automatically crashes and whatsapp closes itself. again you open the application you see that the messages which you deleted haven’t deleted. after crash it doesn’t clear messages Second: Privacy bug in this bug when you go settings and click on privacy then we will see many categories there about privacy but when we click About or any section there and when you try to go back it goes back but you can’t click other options. like i clicked my bio’s privacy in privacy settings when u try to go back and select it doesn’t let me use another option. i have to restart app. after restarting app we don’t meet with this bug. but if we do same things we will meet with this bug again. Please WhatsApp team take a look to this comment i hope this comment will help.
Feature Request
Fuad Agazade
Dear WhatsApp Team,I would like to suggest a new feature that would greatly improve the user experience in Communities and Groups: Group-Specific Display Names (Nicknames).The Problem:Currently, users appear in groups under their global profile names or the names saved in my contact list. In specific communities (like neighborhood chats, work groups, or hobby clubs), we often need more context about a person that isn't relevant globally.The Solution:Allow users to have a unique "Display Name" that is visible only within a specific group. This should not affect their global profile name.Proposed Functionality:1. Custom Aliases: Allow setting a unique name for a specific group.• Example 1 (Neighborhood Group): "John Doe (Apt 15, Building B)"• Example 2 (Car Enthusiast Club): "Mike (BMW M5 - Plate 99-AA-999)"2. Admin Controls: Add a permission setting for Group Admins:• "Who can change group nicknames?" -> Options: "Admins Only" or "All Participants".3. Visibility: These nicknames should only appear inside that specific group chat and member list.This feature would allow users to identify each other correctly without needing to save hundreds of strangers to their personal phone contacts just to add a note about who they are.Thank you for considering this request!

Dear WhatsApp Team,I kindly request you to improve the video quality on WhatsApp. Currently, when we share videos with our contacts or upload them to status, the resolution and clarity drop significantly. Since videos are one of the most important ways we communicate, keeping the quality higher would make the user experience much better. I hope you will consider enhancing this feature in future updates. Thank you!
App crash
lotu hariska
I am using whatsapp for many years and about a month I have very uncomfortable issue. Firstly the app itself after a usage for more or less 40 minutes it crashhes and the worth thing is that it doesn't save anything like for example I am in a chat with someone, I wrote big text, and after it crashes and throws me from the app, then after I am again opening the app and everything what I wrote was missing and also it opens the previous chat in which I was chating, this is super uncomfortable to be honest please, this also happens not only in my phone I have a friends which also facing this issue, just check this out and fix this stupid issue and secondly the video notes feature is awful telegram is much more better.
We update the app regularly to fix bugs, optimize performance and improve the experience. Thanks for using WhatsApp!
