What is WhatsApp?
WhatsApp is a Meta-owned instant messaging service that lets you send and receive voice and text messages as well as make voice and video calls for free. You can also use it to quickly and easily share photos, videos, gifs, documents, locations, and more. WhatsApp can be used on various platforms, including Android, iOS, Windows, and macOS, and also has a dedicated Web client.
The messenger's popularity is likely to increase given the general shift to private messaging and remote working caused by the impact of COVID-19. For instance, you can use it to communicate with your boss or client or when you need several team members to be involved in the chat.
