WhatsApp, the biggest messaging platform from the planet, today has a very important announcement for all those who use its services on iPhone, Android, or other operating systems for mobile terminals. More precisely, WhatsApp has completed 10 years of existence, a round number, which the American company wants to celebrate as such, so it started with a message for everyone, and a small infographic showing its evolution over a decade.
WhatsApp, started in 2009 as an application for iPhone and Android that in just a few years became so popular, with hundreds of millions of users, that it was bought by Facebook for 20 billion dollars. WhatsApp also made a video celebrating its 10 years of existence, showing how different people communicate every day using its messaging platform, including how companies can interact more easily with users.
WhatsApp is celebrating 10 years of existence, as it knows best
WhatsApp, does not include in this video clip the great harm done by the fake news distributed through the platform, or the people killed because of them, but of course that is a completely different story, much sadder. More than 1 year has passed since WhatsApp announced that it has 1 billion monthly active users, so we can conclude that it has reached much closer to 2 billion users, roughly what Facebook has for its social network application .
It's been 10 years since we launched WhatsApp! Over the course of this decade, we've been contacted by people around the world who use WhatsApp to connect with loved ones, engage with their communities, and grow their businesses. Stories like these continue to inspire us, and to celebrate our anniversary, we're taking a look back at some of the highlights we've experienced over the years. We're excited to continue developing features that make WhatsApp an even simpler and more reliable app for everyone. Thanks to users everywhere for joining us on this journey!
WhatsApp, makes this anniversary with a very interesting announcement, promising to offer new functions in the very near future for users all over the world, which creates very high expectations. It is unlikely that it will be about the ads that WhatsApp is currently testing for the application, because this will seriously affect the image of the company, because it had promised not to offer them, but in reality its plans are completely different.
WhatsApp, recently released an update that brings improved security for Face ID, and Touch ID, so it will be interesting to see what exactly we will get from the Americans in the end.
