This country is a joke, to be sincere I really didn't see any screening carried out here

That is the last price?

WHATSAPP continues to be the world’s most popular messaging service and this latest news from the Facebook-owned firm will have its rivals weeping.

It wasn’t that long ago that WhatsApp announced its service was being used by one billion people every month.

Now it seems the messaging service has continued its growth in popularity with the Facebook-owned firm just revealing one billion people now use it every single day.

WhatsApp was originally launched in 2009 by ex Yahoo! employees Brian Acton and Jan Koum.

However, in 2014 the service was purchased by Facebook for a staggering $19.3billion and since then its user numbers have flourished.

Now this latest news cements its place as one of the most popular apps ever created.

As well as one billion people using the app, WhatsApp has also released statistics showing 55 billion messages and 4.5 billion photos are shared per day.

Revealing the latest news in a blog post, WhatsApp said: “Just last year, we shared that one billion people around the world use WhatsApp every month.

“Today, we are excited and proud to share that one billion people around the world use WhatsApp every day to stay in touch with their family and friends.

“Whether it’s sharing personalized photos and videos, connecting through video calling, or keeping friends updated throughout the day with Status, communicating on WhatsApp has never been easier or more personal. We are humbled that so many people are using these new features to connect with one another in their own special way.

“As we celebrate this milestone, we’re committed more than ever to bringing you more useful features to enjoy, while delivering the reliability, simplicity, and security you expect with WhatsApp. Thank you for your continued support.”

These latest user numbers come as WhatsApp has pushed out a major update to its app.

The Facebook-owned messaging app now lets its army of loyal fans send documents of any type during chats.

Previously, files that could be sent via WhatsApp were limited to standard PDF documents, but file size is now the only limitation.

WhatsApp says documents of up to 100MB can now be sent which should easily be enough for the average user.

Other new features include the ability to pin chats to the top of chat lists and multiple photos can now be forwarded quickly and deleted all at once.

Along with these official upgrades it’s also thought that more new features could be launching soon including the option to send and play YouTube videos within the app.

austinvsb1:
While i have never joined others to berate your contributions while noticing them, i am starting to believe in people's accusations that you actively seek attention like your life depended on it with intelligently constructed jargons in the name of analysis.


You certainly are good with words and one can understand why jonathanians like Ichidodo, Mogidi, Severusnape et al suffering from P.E.M.D (Post_Election_Mental_Disorder) rejoice at the sight of your name. Your new found hate for buhari can only increase your blood pressure, thus reducing your lifespan while he delivers the dividend of democracy to Nigerians.


That being said, only you and your ilks have determined to remain blind to the significant developments that have been witnessed since buharis’s ascension. Starting from America’s pledge of 5million usd for the joint task force through G7’s promises of support to the release of 21million USD by Buhari’s FG for the fight against Boko Haram, the present day government have easily achieved more than its predecessor. That you choose to ignore this developments bearing in mind that the government of the day is just 3 weeks old shows how pathetic your person is. *continues*
