Send messages securely

WhatsApp Messenger offers powerful end-to-end encryption, allowing you to send encrypted messages. Only you and the recipient will have access to the information contained in each chat. There is also a useful feature to protect certain conversations by means of biometric authentication, i.e., a fingerprint. Likewise, the tool allows you to attach single-view photos or videos to protect certain audiovisual content that you share from being forwarded.

Temporary messages and privacy

To increase your privacy, WhatsApp Messenger allows you to configure certain aspects that other users will see when they try to chat with you. For example, the tool makes it possible to hide your last connection time or your profile picture. At the same time, the app also offers you the chance to back up your conversations. In addition, at no cost, you can always store each backup on platforms such as iCloud or Google Drive.

Access your conversations on other devices

Accessing your WhatsApp Messenger conversations on PC is also a very simple process. You can use WhatsApp Desktop or open the browser to view all your chats on WhatsApp Web. You will need to scan a QR code with your smartphone to securely complete the verification process.

Make calls in WhatsApp Messenger

With WhatsApp Messenger you can do more than chat via text. The tool also offers a section where you can make voice calls. Through your Internet connection you will find it very easy to talk to your acquaintances or loved ones wherever they are in the world. At the same time, the app allows you to make HD video calls so you can see your contacts' faces while you talk. But be careful, because the quality of the connection will always depend on the stability of the network you are accessing the service from.

Create communities and groups

On WhatsApp Messenger you can create chats and talk to several users at the same time. However, aside from the classic group option, the app will also offer you the ability to create communities. In each community you can send notices to members very quickly. All while exploring groups, chatting, organizing events, sharing polls or reacting to messages from other people.

Integration with Meta AI

WhatsApp Messenger has Meta AI integration. The blue circle in the chat window allows you to ask questions to the AI as if you were in front of ChatGPT. In this sense, it will be enough to open a chat with Meta's artificial intelligence to start a conversation that you will be able to extend as long as you need. As an added bonus, you can also use the top search bar to ask Meta AI anything.

Download the WhatsApp Messenger APK for Android and enjoy this excellent instant messaging app on your smartphone. Access all the latest features of each new WhatsApp update and stay in touch, during your day-to-day, with the people you really care about, however far away you might be.
