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.

WhatsApp is everything you want a social media app to be. I prefer WhatsApp because its easy and can integrate with most functions. It helps greatly with networking, sharing information, safe and secure, save money making free calls. Connects family friends. Plain messages, music, video, and complex documents can be shared easily to anywhere in the world that has wif or internet. Regular update is a key attribute. Excellent.

So far the best app I’ve seen. Love that it frequently updates. Just would like to recommend if they could add the like ❤️or thumbs up 👍🏼 button feature to their status. So that the viewers can easily like while viewing stories. Just a suggestion. Thanks
Blocked calls

I’m having issues with this app. My bf can’t call me but he is not blocked or anything. We text, I see what he posts and he sees what I post. I’ve tried to delete the app and restart my phone but every time he calls me it just shows the call being unavailable like I blocked him but I didn’t. I’ve been trying to fix this issue for days now. I can only call him but he can’t call me. Everyone else calls me and it’s fine but just him calling me and it saying unavailable is so confusing.
We update the app regularly to fix bugs, optimize performance and improve the experience. Thanks for using WhatsApp!
