What you need to know about WhatsApp

 

In this article, we are going to discuss all the things you need to know about WhatsApp –

  1. WhatsApp is an end-to-end encrypted messenger. This means that only the sender and the receiver can see the messages being exchanged. No one else, not even WhatsApp can see your conversations.
  2. You do not need to sign up with an email id as WhatsApp works with your registered phone number and also uses the contacts you have saved on your device.
  3. You can use WhatsApp to send text messages, images, videos, documents and even payments.
  4. WhatsApp also features a Whatsapp for Business app that allows you to link your WhatsApp app with your business. This way, customers can approach you directly on WhatsApp and place orders there.
  5. If you like video conferencing with your friends, you can even have group video calls on WhatsApp.
  6. Whatsapp is completely free with no paid tiers introduced at the moment.
  7. When it comes to customisation, WhatsApp allows you to use custom chat backgrounds for each conversation that you have and more recently, you can even switch to dark mode if you like that aesthetic.

Recently, WhatsApp was subject to a lot of complaints in regards to the privacy of the chats that are going on the platform, especially since they got taken over by Facebook, and that resulted in the company changing its privacy policy and introducing the end to end encryption features across their platform.
