The world's most popular messaging platform WhatsApp is now going to make such changes in its app, which will give a completely new experience to the users. Actually, WhatsApp may soon provide cross-messaging facility to its users with third-party apps. In this way, users will not have to download multiple apps and will be able to chat everywhere from a single app. However, it is clear that the process of this change is not going to be easy.
In this article:
This is why this change will happen
Let us tell you that this change is going to happen due to the new Digital Markets Act implemented by the European Union, in which Meta (parent company of WhatsApp) has been designated as the “gatekeeper” and it will have to comply with the Third Amendment within a time frame of six months. The party is obliged to allow you to interact with its services.
Launch timeline not disclosed
media outlet wired In an interview given to WhatsApp, WhatsApp's engineering director Dick Broer has said that the platform is working on planning to bring other messaging apps on board. At present, the launch timeline related to this change has not been revealed, but the platform may share new information next month. This is being called the future of messaging.
Work has been going on for the last two years
According to Brower, the company has been working on it for the last two years. Actually, Meta, the company owned by WhatsApp, has been appointed as the gatekeeper under the Digital Markets Act of the European Union (EU). This act has advocated to provide a single messaging solution to the users within the next six months. At the same time, EU demands that users should be given the option to send messages to all users from the same app.
Which chatting platforms will be linked?
At present, WhatsApp has not revealed which messaging apps will be linked. But, with this new feature of WhatsApp, big messaging apps (like Signal, Telegram and Google) can be linked. However, the stand of these companies has not been made clear.
