WhatsApp announced that it has acquired 1 billion users on the mobile messaging platform.
Η company owned by Facebook, claims its users share 42 billion messages per day in the WhatsApp application, 1,6 billion photos and 250 million videos daily.
The most interesting thing, however, was that CEO Jan Koum had told Wired at 18 January that WhatsApp had 990 millions of users, meaning that 10 has acquired millions of users in just over two weeks.
Do they inflate them?
However, WhatsApp has added many new features in 2015, such as desktop interface, voice calls and the ability to create backups of your Google Drive conversations. Video calling is believed to be in the works.
Also, as mentioned in a previous publication, the company no longer requests the annual subscription of 0.99 $ that was charged to some users.
