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.

This has been a great app, best messaging app by distance. But it can be greatly improved upon. I still wonder why the developers have left it this boring I have used GB whatsapp in the past, it's a hundred times better. I don't need all the features in GB integrated here, but at least, some useful ones should be. Like the following; 1. Option to change the default display menu colours, and outlook style. 2. The option to separate individual chats from group chats.

The calling feature on a Note 20 Ultra really sucks. I have two phones, a note 20 and a note 8. I rarely have problems with a video call freezing up or dropping on the note 8, but it does it all the time on the note 20 to the point where it's almost impossible to make a video chat call without it freezing up or the call dropping. It's a good thing I have two phones, but I find it odd that this app works better on my old note 8 than it does on my note 20. They're both on the same network too.

Whatsapp for the phone works well but I am disappointed in the Galaxy Watch version. I sometimes have issues linking my device. My main issue is staying linked. I could be linked for a week maybe two. Then it drops so I don't even get any notifications. Makes the app pretty useless if I have to go through this song and dance every couple of weeks.

What's new

• You can instantly record and send video messages in chats. Long press the camera next to the text field in chat to get started.
• Added new text formatting options: quotes (> text), bullets (* text or - text), numbered lists (1. text), and inline code (`text`).


These features will roll out over the coming weeks. Thanks for using WhatsApp!
