You Will Miss These 5 WhatsApp features in Signal, 5 such WhatsApp features which you will not find on Signal

WhatsApp is under criticism these days due to its new privacy policy, due to which users have started adopting other platforms instead of this instant messaging platform. Recently we told you that a large number of people are leaving WhatsApp and downloading Signal and Telegram. At 5:26 am on Saturday, Signal had tweeted that the app has secured the first position in the list of top free apps on Apple App Store in India, Austria, France, Finland, Germany, Hong Kong and Switzerland. Even though due to the new privacy policy of WhatsApp, users are leaving WhatsApp and joining ‘Signal’, but there are many such advanced features of WhatsApp which you are going to miss on ‘Signal’. Let’s take a look at some of these features-

Status updates

If you are going to leave WhatsApp and use Signal, then it is very important for you to know that you will not get the Status feature on ‘Signal’. The Facebook-owned company allows you to make photos and videos your WhatsApp status for 24 hours, which can only be seen by you and your contacts. However, this feature is not currently available on Signal.
