WhatsApp has started rolling out a new feature to those using the Android beta version of the messaging app. Now, when a user changes his/hers WhatsApp phone number, the subscriber will be given the option to alert his/her contacts of the new number via a notification. Found on WhatsApp for Android beta version 2.18.97, the "Change Number feature" offers three notification options.

The three choices users have are to notify all contacts about the new phone number, notify only those contacts that the user has chatted with, or notify those contacts hand-picked by the user. To send the notification, WhatsApp beta members should go to WhatsApp Settings > Account > Change number. In the top-right corner, users will see "Next." The subscriber taps on it, types in the old and new phone numbers, clicks on "Next" again and enables the Notify my contacts option. The user will then have to choose from all contacts, contacts that you’ve chats with, or custom.

We expect to see this new capability eventually make it to the final version of the app for Android, iOS and Windows users. So far, WhatsApp has not given a time frame for the global launch of the "Change Number" feature.

Copy copy. GB WhatsApp has similar feature

WhatsApp dey learn work. On Telegram, one can use three different numbers in one app.

I can even copy a link to a message from Telegram and post it here, when one clicks on the the link, it will open on Telegram, if the person has Telegram.

When will Whatsapp give us , channels or page

I am shocked by the fact that Nigerians are not really embracing Telegram . Whatsapp looks outdated when compared side by side with telegram. Currently am using Telegram X.

Actually, the real WhatsApp has all the features GB WhatsApp or any other modded WhatsApp has. It only takes a code to activate it.

For instance, if you change your number on GB WhatsApp and you notify your contacts, they won't get it? Why? Because it has not been activated on the server side.

And all modded WhatsApp are based on the non-beta version of WhatsApp.

I just hope you'll understand me better.
