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.

The only thing I don’t like about WhatsApp is it shows contacts when I didn’t add them in I only wanted it certain in my WhatsApp, but all other others of other people and companies show themselves in there too. I don’t like that. I’m waiting for an update that excludes all of these extra contact people in business businesses. Because there’s nothing in the settings that stops them from entering in every time I open up the WhatsApp app.

Cruise ship dream
Love Printed Photos 1
I went on a cruise ship last week. They only offered WiFi and Satellite to communicate with home. Satellite, if you are not aware, can cost thousands of dollars calling home from a ship. Someone told me about WhatsApp. I had a very sick grandson at home and a boyfriend who I wanted to keep in touch with and this app was my answer. I used it the entire cruise without a problem and will keep it!
Getting better
MissLilSunnyPatch
I grew up in the U.S. and have been using WhatsApp for as long as it’s been available and I have to say that the progress has been great. However, as a mother of teenager boys that spend have the year with their dad. I love to have access to their location always/indefinitely and not for the day. I think this would be a great addition as I also live far from family (1,000 miles away) and not all of them have an iPhone so they worry about me being alone. Make this addition please.
We update the app regularly to fix bugs, optimize performance and improve the experience. Thanks for using WhatsApp!
