Users Will Soon Text From External Apps Directly Inside WhatsApp

 

WhatsApp is taking a significant step towards ensuring greater digital openness across Europe by enabling seamless communication that extends beyond the borders of its own platform, making it closer to enabling seamless communication that extends beyond the confines of its platform itself. 
According to the requirements for interoperability outlined in the EU’s Digital Markets Act, the company is preparing to add third-party chat support to its chat services within the European Union.
A new feature that is being offered by WhatsApp will allow users to communicate with users on other messaging services which are willing to integrate with the WhatsApp framework. This feature can be opted into by individuals who choose to opt in. 
An initial rollout, planned in Europe for both Android and iOS devices, will cover the basics like text, photos, videos, voice notes, and files, while a later phase will include a broader range of capabilities, including cross-platform group chats. 
The new system is offered as an option and can be controlled in the application’s settings. However, WhatsApp’s new features have been built in a way that ensures that end-to-end encryption standards are maintained within WhatsApp’s existing security protocols, ensuring users’ privacy is never compromised as a result of expanding connectivity.
