Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I find WhatsApp to be a great and exciting platform to communicate with other users with an ease. Besides instant messaging, WhatsApp also allows me to create group, join communities, share multimedia files, share statuses, make and take both voice and video calls.
  • - It only takes your phone number and that's it. It doesn't ask any other details of the user to use this app. - It is very user-friendly and easy to use app with no ads and completely free to use. - User can delete the scent message which is a good feature that WhatsApp offers to the users. - it has brilliant audio and video calling features, which uses fewer data than its competitors.
  • I am very interested in this project so far . it has been very useful for communication and also granting high quality videos.
  • - WhatsApp is the most widely use application that gives you a platform to connect with your contacts. - All the chats on this platform are 128 bit end-to-end encrypted that gives the utmost security to its user privacy. - All the chats can be easily backed up on local storage as well as on google drive. It gives the user the flexibility to restore chats on a new device.
  • - Simple and user friendly application - Voice call and video call available - Instantly able to send a message to all over the world - Live-location sharing feature

Cons

  • WhatsApp is a good platform for all my instant communication needs and I have not came across any issues while using it.
  • - The data is stored in the servers, which is a security concern and is not full proof. - you cannot send a video file bigger than 61mb and a document having size bigger than 100 MB, which is one of the biggest cons of WhatsApp. - WhatsApp group accommodates fewer number of people whereas its competitors like telegram accommodates 1000x more people.
  • Sometimes during conversation or video calls the connection get interrupted but I think the is from the internet provider not the application.
  • The chats on WhatsApp are end to end encrypted, however, the backup datastore on google drive is not, So, the WhatsApp user data can be easily hacked if the google account gets hacked.
  • - Privacy policy issues - Media files up to 16mb only can be transferred - Need to share personal number in order to communicate

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Fast communication. Enjoyable experience. Intuitive layouts overall. Empowering creativity. Simple and functional.
  • 1. It is end-to-end encrypted, which provides privacy and security while chatting. 2. It can be used in multiple Apple devices and all the data gets synchronized across all the devices in real-time. 3. Furthermore, it supports emojis and memojis. 4. It has many stickers and effects to make the chatting fun.
  • - The message exchange is just seamless with smooth animations. - It automatically distinguishes iMessage and non iMessage user by showing the chats in blue and green bubbles. - The chats can be made more interactive with the use of stickers and custom memojis. - It supports integration with many Apple applications, like Apple Pay.
  • - It is more than just a messaging application with a lot of unique features. - It allows the iPhone user to text to another iPhone user, as well as people not on the Apple device. - It gets seamlessly integrated with other Apple application for a smoother experience. - The animation and exclusive use of memojis makes chatting more fun.
  • - iMessage comes preloaded with Apple devices and is completely free to use. - The user interface of the application is feature packed and clean. - It allows the user to use animated emojis for a fun chat experience. - It also has feature that allow the user to send a message with special graphical effects. - It is completely free to use and run solely on data if the recipient is also using iMessage.

Cons

  • I suggest placing the Delete message option alongside or within the same menu as the reply, add sticker, copy, and translate options. This arrangement would make it easier to directly select and delete the last message, rather than having to navigate through a "More..." button. It would empower users to decide which message they want to delete independently.
  • 1. It is only available for Apple devices. Other than this, it does not have any solid con.
  • - Honestly, it is one of the best messaging tool available, and I haven't had any issues with it in my usage.
  • - There isn't anything to dislike about this application, everything works smooth and jitter free.
  • - It is only limited exclusively to Apple devices.
