400 million users on WhatsApp

Written by

Reading time is around minutes.

In October WhatsApp had 350 million users. The company has now announced new data - the number of users of this application for instant messaging has exceeded 400 million. Statistics include number of monthly active users, and the explosive growth in the number of users continues from earlier. Just four months ago WhatsApp had „only“ 300 million users.

Behind the development of applications is a company with only 50 employees. According to the company's founder, they achieved such great success and popularity without any advertising. The popularity of applications is earned simply by its ability which allows users to exchange messages between themselves only at the expense of mobile data, which is quite small if you just use text messages.

Unlike some other messaging services that like to spam you with ads, or charge for their services, WhatsApp decided to stay away from that kind of business. You can try it for free on a period of 1 year(!), and after that you need to pay only 0.99$ per year in order to continue using it. And from personal experience that fee is nothing if you compare it with the quality of service which is great.
