Its early adoption on Android propelled it to the top. Connecting with someone requires them to also have the app installed.

WhatsApp Messenger requires a phone number for verification via SMS before use. You can then chat individually or participate in groups with hundreds of members, managed by one or more administrators. Administrators can configure settings, such as automatically deleting messages older than 24 hours. WhatsApp Messenger supports text messages, voice notes, photos, videos, documents, location sharing, contacts, GIFs, stickers, emojis, and even surveys. Beyond pre-loaded GIFs, custom stickers can be created using third-party apps.
WhatsApp Messenger also facilitates individual and group voice and video calls, eliminating the need for external apps. Both chats and calls utilize end-to-end encryption, ensuring only the recipient can access the content. For a comprehensive and top-tier Android messaging experience, download the WhatsApp Messenger APK.
