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,I’m having an issue with WhatsApp on my iPhone, the sound doesn’t play when I view Status videos. Regular videos in chats work fine, and my phone’s sound works normally in other apps. I’ve already reinstalled WhatsApp, restarted my phone, and checked that silent mode is off, but the problem still continues.Please help me fix this issue.Thank you.
Dissatisfaction in your new User Interface
E. Khan12
Subject: Feedback on the New WhatsApp User InterfaceDear WhatsApp Team,I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the recent changes made to the WhatsApp user interface, particularly the shift from the familiar blue theme to a new green design.As a long-time user, I find this change both unnecessary and inconvenient. The previous blue interface was clean, professional, and easier on the eyes. It provided a sense of clarity and calm that many users had grown accustomed to over the years. The sudden transition to green feels jarring and has impacted the overall user experience negatively.May I ask what was the reason behind changing such a core part of the interface? Was there a demand from users, or was this purely an internal design decision? If it’s based on user feedback, I believe many would appreciate the opportunity to opt back into the previous blue theme.I strongly recommend that you consider restoring the blue interface or at least offer users a choice between the two themes. Customization and familiarity are key aspects of user satisfaction, and giving users control over their interface would be a welcome and inclusive solution.Thank you for your time and consideration.Sincerely,A Concerned User
WhatsApp Is Great

Recent updates WhatsApp has been are very cool, especially being able to edit sent messages, follow pages and many more. However I’ll like to make a suggestion, which is being able to edit status just like you’re able to edit messages.
Notifications

Am having issues with the in-app notifications, the banner fails to disappear from the top of the screen automatically when am using a different application and get a WhatsApp notification . I have deleted the app and reinstalled it again but the issue is still persisting, please help fix that because it is really annoying to have to be swiping to clear it from the top of the screen manually. Thank you
We update the app regularly to fix bugs, optimize performance and improve the experience. Thanks for using WhatsApp!
