WOAHHH
Ok- I don’t know where to start but i will start with this one. Sooooo, WHATSAPP IS AMAZING!!! One of the points is that you can post on your status, and even send live pics out of ur camera roll onto your status, family group chat etc etc. Another point is that you can make as many group chats as u want! I think the limit of people in a group/ call in like 3000 and something… So A LOT! You can also make people admins in groups, (which means they can add someone, change the group name for everyone, the profile etc. Your can also change your bio( which describes you) and your profile and name to whatever you want!!!! Even though this is a 12+, I think it should be a 9+ because you can delete eachothers messages and status’s. Also you can block people and report them if they are being mean or hurtful or whatever and you can monitor messages or status’s. The status’s last for exactly 24 hours, but I’m sure you don’t want to hear me carry on as you are probably bored by now, even though there is more, but yeah I hoped this helped. Byeee! Also get WhatsApp ASAP!!
I MEAN IT 🌸🌺🌷
Now owned by Facebook!
TL;DR: Switch to Signal Messenger. WhatsApp now share messages, pics and videos with facebook. Whatsapp is no longer private! Quite funny that WhatsApp are copying all Signal features to try and remain a relevant messaging app. Facebook own facebook messenger, instagram and whatsapp. Things are about to change for the worse very soon: They are combining services; messages you send will be encrypted end-to-end to the recipient, but the message itself and any pictures (plus GPS tags on pics) are uploaded to Facebook, so they will see the content of your messages, pictures; from which they can then advertise stuff to you and sell your info onwards to other companies. You can switch to an opensource messaging app called ‘Signal messenger’ - open source and charity owned by a foundation. They never sell your data and information is truly encrypted end to end, never monitored by Facebook AND you can sign in on multiple devices, such as laptop and iPad, without your phone having signal service or being switched on! Signal messenger has more features than whatsapp and provides guaranteed privacy - your messages cannot be seen. But in essence Whatsapp is no longer what it originally was and you can make your voice heard by deregistering and switching to another message app of choice. The original owners of whatsapp have just left Facebook and it is now obvious why!
Amazing
WhatsApp is really good however it’s a bit hard to find some stuff and you can customise your own profile picture and you can also add a sentence about you underneath your profile picture. And say if you upgraded from messages to WhatsApp then if you had a friend who can’t find WhatsApp in the App Store then you can invite them to WhatsApp by sending an invitation in settings. Also you can turn on disappearing messages but if someone clicks on your message then they can keep the messages stopping it from disappearing from that specific person. Along with that if you’re in a group chat then you can click on your message and then info to see who has read it and you can send a message where you can only red it once. And same with if you’re on a group chat then you can easily just block one person from that group which does mean you can still see the group chat messages it’s just that you can’t see the person’s message(s) if they send any since you have blocked them.
Thank you WhatsApp for helping me over the past 9 years!
