Why do you use WhatsApp?
In the mobile messaging sector, WhatsApp is a pioneer. The app was purchased for more than $20 billion from Facebook, and is available on iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS.
WhatsApp makes it easy to communicate with friends, family and colleagues for free, excluding mobile data, with voice, video or messages.
WhatsApp is used by about 2 billion users around the world; So there is a good chance that your friends and family have already installed it on their smartphone.
What can you do on WhatsApp Messenger?
- Write messages to individuals or groups, or make end-to-end encrypted voice and video calls.
- Call or video calls up to eight people for free, even on slow connections.
- Send audios (voice memos) with the push of a button to record as long as possible.
- Set a profile picture that all your contacts can see and pictures of others.
- Add hundreds of emojis, stickers or GIFs to conversations. There are dozens of sticker packs you can download and the GIFs section includes a search engine on Giphy.
- Create statuses with text, images, videos, and GIFs that display for 24 hours for all or some of your contacts and then disappear.
- Send messages to multiple contacts at once using the mailing list feature.
- Format your messages: in bold, italic, and strikethrough.
- Share gallery photos, audio files, photos, videos, contacts or location at a specific time or in real time.
- Take photos (front and back camera) directly from the app and share them instantly.
- Quote previous posts to respond to a specific comment.
- Mute groups to avoid interruptions for a period of time (8 hours, 1 week, or forever).
- Mention the group members who use @[name] to receive notifications even if the group is muted.
- Check if messages have been read by contacts using the checks system (1 gray check: sent; 2 gray checks: received but not read; 2 blue checks: read).
- Connect to the web version by pointing your phone's camera at the QR displayed on your computer screen.
- Several other apps tried to dislodge it from its premium position, but all of them fell apart: WeChat, Viber, LINE, Telegram, etc. There is absolutely no one else with 2 billion users in over 180 countries.
- On the other hand, despite its multifunctionality, many users always want more, such as a more customizable interface, better quality when sending files, the ability to use the application with two phone numbers or better privacy settings.
- Of course, WhatsApp LLC (Facebook, Inc.) doesn't really like this and can step in from time to time to complicate its use. For our part, we always recommend using the official service, or an alternative like Telegram, which is also very interesting.
