1. 5/5WhatsApp not bad

   WhatsApp’s not bad at all—it’s actually great for what it does. End-to-end encryption keeps your actual messages and calls private (no one, not even Meta, can read them), and it’s super reliable for texting, voice notes, video calls, groups, and sharing pics/videos across the world without paying extra. Works flawlessly on slow connections, syncs across devices, and the disappearing messages + status features make staying connected fun and easy. Love it for family chats, quick check-ins with friends abroad, and even some work stuff—simple, fast, no ads in chats. But let’s be real: It’s owned by Meta (Facebook), so there are legit privacy dangers. They collect a ton of metadata (who you talk to, when, how often, your phone number, IP address, device info), and that gets shared within Meta for “improving services” or ads elsewhere. Backups aren’t encrypted by default (turn that on!), business chats can feed into Meta’s ecosystem, and features like Meta AI aren’t fully private. Scams/spam groups pop up too often, and if you’re super privacy-focused, it’s not Signal-level secure. Still, for everyday use? It’s one of the best out there—billions trust it daily for a reason. Just stay aware, tweak your privacy settings (disable link previews, limit profile visibility, enable 2-step verification), and use it smart. 4.5 stars—love the app, cautious about the company.

2. 4/5Potential improvements

   I love the app and it’s my main communication method. I just have some ideas that would make the app experience better. 1. It would be useful to have the possibility to filter (as you can do with unread messages) the group chats and individual chats. This would help to find chats easier. 2. The possibility to schedule messages to be sent at a certain time would be a major improvement. This would eliminate barriers created from different time zone as the app is used internationally. 3. Many of us use WhatsApp for everything including social and work related communication. And all chats and group chats are mixed together. It would be good to be able to add a label to chats according to a category. Then, you could filter the categories and find the ones that are under the label selected easily. This could be useful to save time and also to be able to prioritize messages. 4. Connected to the possibility to label chats to custom categories, it would be useful to put a schedule when you can receive messages in each label. Since most of us use the app as a work tool, but also as our main communication method. This creates a problem when trying to disconnect from work. It would be useful to pin chats (and group chats) to a category and be able to put certain schedule to when you can receive messages from each category of chats. This could help a lot to separate work from social life. This are just ideas that I would love to see through and hope the app continues to improve.

3. 5/5My hosnest rewive

   I just wanted to take a moment to express my appreciation for creating such a fantastic app. WhatsApp has truly revolutionized the way we connect with others, and I’m extremely impressed with the range of features it offers. Here are a few aspects that stand out to me: Seamless Communication: The ability to send messages, make voice and video calls, and share multimedia files effortlessly has made WhatsApp indispensable in both my personal and professional life. End-to-End Encryption: The security features, especially end-to-end encryption, give me peace of mind knowing that my private conversations are safe and secure. User-Friendly Interface: I find the app incredibly easy to use, even for someone who’s not particularly tech-savvy. It’s intuitive, and navigating through it feels natural. Cross-Device Syncing: The ability to use WhatsApp on both my phone and desktop, along with WhatsApp Web, makes managing my messages so convenient and accessible, no matter where I am. Group Chats & Status: The group chat feature is perfect for keeping in touch with multiple people, whether it’s family, friends, or colleagues. Plus, I love being able to share status updates with my contacts. No Cost for Calls and Messages: The fact that WhatsApp allows me to communicate globally for free, as long as I have an internet connection, is something I truly value. That said, I’d love to see more features that can enhance our user experience, such as more customization options for notifications and better management tools for large groups. But overall, WhatsApp has exceeded my expectations, and I look forward to its continued growth and improvements. Thank you for such a reliable and user-friendly app

4. 4/5Audio Calls

   What will it take to get connected when I make an audio call? Is WhatsApp promises to its patrons as vague and unfulfilling as I have experienced? I would love to give you, WhatsApp, a FIVE STAR rating in all your services, but, NO! When it comes to audio calling, NO! On many occasions, and now regular basis, anytime I have attempted to make an international call , the connectivity has failed completely. It’s either, the person I am trying to reach hears only silence from my side and so is vice vasa when the contact attempts to call be. Each time I have felt like a wounded lion for your let down. Each time I call, a contact, the only communication I se on my screen is , “ connecting ......” and after 30 seconds or so, I am disconnected. Why is it I can never get connection but when I use my private number to call, the same contacts, the connection is superb and I don’t have to run into networking issues and disconnection? I am disappointed and fed up with your poor customer service. To add more injury to my disappointment , today, you interrupted my dialing by asking me to rate your service? This was after I had five attempts to get connection to the same contact I was attempting to call. I have tried different contacts in the same region but I get zero connection from WhatsApp. Please, I urge you to fix the glitch that you have created , but until then, I would prefer to give you a zero rating for your audio calling service. Unfortunately, zero is not among the choices you have. Disappointed and wounded patron.

5. 1/5Filled with scammers, not a secure app

   WhatsApp was what I used when I studied abroad to communicate with friends and family, but I unfortunately the app has so many issues that I refuse to use it even if that means it will be more difficult to communicate with those same friends and family living abroad. The app does provide some privacy in messaging, but based on the updated service agreements, it seems clear that Meta plans to use and train large language models on private messages. Additionally, WhatsApp has a series of issues regarding collecting metadata of its users and having nearly total freedom to monetize that information. I hate the idea of an app that claims to provide private and secure communication that is simultaneously monetizing my data. The app is also filled with scammers. I receive near daily notifications from massive cryptocurrency scam groups adding me to group chats promising “massive returns on my investment.” No matter how many times I report these groups, they just keep popping up. I blame the extraction of all contacts from your phone that WhatsApp uses to help you communicate with others through the app. It’s clear that Meta is doing nothing to address these issues and they continue to violate our data while doing nothing. If I could go back and never use the app in the first place, I would do it in a heartbeat. There other options for communication with family and friends abroad that does not come with the same issues that WhatsApp promises.
