WhatsApp from Meta is a FREE messaging and video calling app. It’s used by over 2B people in more than 180 countries. It’s simple, reliable, and private, so you can easily keep in touch with your friends and family. WhatsApp works across mobile and desktop even on slow connections, with no subscription fees*.
Private messaging across the world is an application that allows you to securely communicate with friends and family through personal messages and calls. The app uses end-to-end encryption to ensure that only you and the person you are communicating with can read or listen to your conversations, providing a high level of privacy.
To use the app, all you need is a phone number - there are no usernames or logins required. This makes it easy to quickly connect with your contacts who are also on WhatsApp and start messaging.
In addition to messaging, the app also offers high quality voice and video calls for up to 8 people for free. These calls work across mobile devices using your phone's internet service, even on slow connections.
The app also allows for group chats, making it easy to stay in touch with multiple friends and family members at once. These group chats are also end-to-end encrypted, allowing you to share messages, photos, videos, and documents securely across mobile and desktop devices.
You can also share your location in real time with individuals or groups, and have the option to stop sharing at any time. Another feature is the ability to record and send voice messages, allowing for quick and easy communication.
The app also has a feature called Status, which allows you to share updates in the form of text, photos, videos, and GIFs that disappear after 24 hours. You can choose to share these updates with all your contacts or just selected ones.
For added convenience, the app can also be used on Wear OS watches, allowing you to continue conversations, reply to messages, and take calls all from your wrist. You can also access your chats and send voice messages through tiles and complications on the watch.
Please note that data charges may apply, so it is best to check with your provider for details. If you have any feedback or questions about the app, you can easily access the contact information through the app's settings.
