Surely you have found yourself at some point in the situation of having to contact a stranger that you do not intend to add to your contacts. The problem is that so far WhatsApp asked you to add someone before you could message them.
This ends up being not only a nuisance, but also a privacy issue. Many of us have our accounts set up so that only the contacts we have can see our last login or the profile picture we’re using, and that WhatsApp requirement has “forced” us to give this information to people we don’t know and don’t want to have.
Simplicity and confidentiality: this is how all updates should be
Now, thanks to wabetainfo.com, we know that WhatsApp has added the possibility of being able to contact strangers without having to add them. It will be enough to write your phone number in the search engine of contacts, and as soon as it detects that none of them correspond to this number, will give us the option to send you a message without saving it on our phone.
Even better, it’s not a beta version, it’s available for everyone. At the moment, this editor has not activated it on your iPhone, so it is very likely that this new feature will be gradually rolled out so that ends up reaching everyone as soon as possible.
The truth is that as a function it is very good. It makes our life easier, protects our privacy, the way we communicate and with whom we want to share our data. NOW It just needs to be available to all userswhich, on the face of it, won’t take long.
