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.

You can add a new feature where people can type messages and set dates as to when they would like it to be sent. For example the business WhatsApp accounts could send out reminders to customers about new products or when a bill will be due. Or regular users could write birthday wishes for someone’s birthday so that when the date comes up even if you don’t remember on the exact date you would have already written a birthday message in advance.

Annoying new features
Sonicccccccca
I do not like the new update and would prefer it to revert back, the new update is very annoying especially since i cannot achive or delete the communities without leaving the groups. I do not like having the community permanently on my loading page its annoying to see. I like to have a clean -organized front page with only important/priority chats and everything else archived or deleted. I cannot achieve that because the community is just PERMANENTLY THERE. Kmt its frustrating and annoying as f. And why i gotta scroll all the way across to see statuses and muted statuses?? KmtI liked how the original whatsapp was setup. This new feature just looks like a bad copy of instagram stories. Update the app with whatever ideas yall have but before changing the layout keep in mind that we (the customers) are the ones using it, is it workable for us?? Because this is not.
Status

The messaging aspect of things are fine. Obviously the main reason for the app must be perfect. However, there are some issues with the Status feature that I find very annoying. Why can’t videos be 60 seconds long if there’s going to be delay when I post the second or third part? I believe the developers should work on fixing that. In addition, there are some features accessible in the “GB” version that make this version look like a baby. Although I’m sure you have already looked into fixing these issues, I am simply pointing out my frustration with them. Thank you again for creating this amazing app; it can only keep IMPROVING!!!
Why would WhatsApp silence my phone calls at night?
Lailabhaddzz
Honestly I don’t have an issue with the updates etc, it’s a great app. But what I hate is whenever I’m getting night calls my phone doesn’t ring. I no longer put my phone on DND and my volume is turned up but my phone doesn’t ring. It happens a few times in the day but it’s mostly night. I always check to see if I have the latest updates and I do but something is wrong and I don’t know what it is. Ps, I have one of the latest phone and I even delete the app and download it back and it’s the samething. Please loook into this WhatsApp.
We update the app regularly to fix bugs, optimize performance and improve the experience. Thanks for using WhatsApp!
