Your personal messages and calls to friends and family are end-to-end encrypted. No one outside of your chats, not even WhatsApp, can read or listen to them.

High quality voice and video calls

Make secure video and voice calls with up to 8 people for free*. Your calls work across mobile devices using your phone’s Internet service, even on slow connections.

Group chats to keep you in contact

Stay in touch with your friends and family. End-to-end encrypted group chats let you share messages, photos, videos and documents across mobile and desktop.

Stay connected in real time

Share your location with only those in your individual or group chat, and stop sharing at any time. Or record a voice message to connect quickly.

Share daily moments through Status

Status allows you to share text, photos, video and GIF updates that disappear after 24 hours. You can choose to share status posts with all your contacts or just selected ones.

Use WhatsApp on your Wear OS watch to continue conversations, reply to messages, and take calls - all from your wrist. And, leverage tiles and complications to easily access your chats and send voice messages.

Can you please for the love of God have it so that Statuses play with sound using the media volume even if the sound profile on phone is set to silent or vibrate. It's so annoying to change the profile just to watch a status. Also, be consistent in UI with other Meta apps. Why are there labels under the icons at the bottom of the screen when there isn't for Instagram and Threads? Remove them for a cleaner look.

I am pretty much satisfied with the latest update. I love the new look too. It gives a refreshing yet simple minimalist vibe. But one thing seems to be buggy, it's the sticker area. I installed few sticker packs, and it was responding when I clicked on the pack. But now, it's buggy. No response. So I have to manually scroll down to get to the sticker pack. It's small bug, I hope devs quickly fix it. Overall, I like the new changes in appearance!

Cool updates. There's an ai system now but I feel like it's just chat gpt but worse. The calls and videos calls are fine. But the annoying thing is that if you don't have Internet connection and you're outside when you get connect to the Internet or WiFi all the messages come in later than it actually was sent. So example a group chat was texting a lot in the afternoon and at night you have your WiFi connection or something like that all the messages will come in at night.
