WhatsApp. You probably already know that at the moment the worst change in the history of the messaging application is expected, the president of the company owned by Facebook officially confirming that it will come for everyone. I'm talking of course about the implementation of ads for the Status function that exists within the WhatsApp application, which is seen by many as the worst change ever implemented for the application, especially since it was built on the idea of not having ads.
WhatsApp. The ads have been tested for some time by the Facebook company for implementation in the messaging application, and it seems that they were thought of even before it was bought, so we are not talking about something really new. Despite this, WhatsApp has grown to over 1.5 billion monthly active users on the platform at the moment, and this is what the Facebook company relies on when it wants to shove ads down the throats of all these people.
WhatsApp. You can run away, but you can't escape the ads in the application
WhatsApp. Ads will initially be displayed when users follow any kind of stories published by other people, but of course this will only be the beginning of the end for the platform. I saw in Facebook Messenger that ads were placed on the main page, among chats, and not only, but also in WhatsApp. WHEN the WORST Change in the History of the Application comes, we can certainly expect the exact same thing, those from Facebook knowing how to monetize the applications.
WhatsApp. Now coming back to the main question, when will the advertisements be launched, well this year they certainly won't come, but in the first part of 2019 we can definitely expect them, the president of the company refusing to give a clear date. We are "safe" until 2019, because no ads will be published on the WhatsApp platform, but unfortunately, starting in January, we can expect them to be imposed by the company at any time.
