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.

It would be nice to have an update feature for status ( and contacts should know that a status has changed). Sometimes I write a long post then I realize I made mistakes but unfortunately I have to delete it and rewrite it ! I’m too lazy to do this.
I may be harsh but…

I really hate that flashy green theme y’all oblige us to use. Can’t you do something that can make you choose the theme of the whole app instead of just chats ? Plus I don’t know why all these unnecessary updates. Some of them are great but you are doing too much and that creates countless bugs.. here I am listening to a voice note without it turning blue after so I keep thinking that I haven’t listened to it yet cause it stays green. And not only that, now there’s a noticeable gap between the moment I send a message and the moment the discussions rearrange themselves to put the recent one on top. WhatsApp was first meant to be private and now you are trying so hard to make it more public with channels and stuffs. You’re ruining our experience on the app.
Channels and status
⚡️SIRIUS-JOOF⚡️
This new update is killing the app experience. Whatsapp used to be a private side that’s what we love we don’t really need channels or stuffs like that Instagram is here for that. And also it’s awful to manage ours status now we’re not even able to select many of them for forwarding or deleting and it’s a pain to do it one by one. Thanks
Need to review the initial conversations
Ro02@
Nice app, easy to use, but why make it so we can see our first conversations with a contact? Sometimes I’m not doing anything and I want to relive my first conversations with someone I love, but there are so many messages I can’t even find my way back to the first one.
We update the app regularly to fix bugs, optimize performance and improve the experience. Thanks for using WhatsApp!
