WhatsApp is not the best about privacy issues but it is still a good way to communicate fast, share texts, videos, pics etc.
Facebook bought this company basically to spy on people (teens) not wanting to use FB or to keep their marketshare. Use Telegram or Signal instead to keep competition, also Telegram is the app WhatsApp copies.

I think this app is rubbish. But I'm Brazilian and 99% of Brazilians like and use this shit. Whatsapp only beats SMS. And yet I still have my doubts about this.
It is spyware that poses as a messenger. Avoid this like the plague. Uninstall it and anything Facebook owns (FB Messenger, Instagram, WhatsApp). Best to use Signal, it is infinitely better and secure. Telegram is only moderately better than WhatsApp.
Is WhatsApp compatible with SMS text messaging? In other words, can I send a message from WhatsApp to a user without WhatsApp? And vice versa. I searched in the Help Center for SMS, but I didn't see any relevant results.

THIS IS SPYWARE, DON'T USE THIS.
i don't trust Whatsapp, i think it spies on it's users and it's owned by Facebook/ meta Platforms and requires a number. Don't use Whatsapp for Secure communication.
