Message Privately. Speak Freely.

We’ve built WhatsApp with industry-leading end-to-end encryption so your personal messages are protected by default, and stay between you and those you send them to. No one else, not even WhatsApp, can read or listen to them. What you share, and with whom you share it, is fully under your control.

Your privacy is automatic

End-to-end encryption

Conversations in end-to-end encrypted chats are clearly labeled with a gold message; these messages and calls stay between you, and no one else can read or listen to its content, not even WhatsApp.

Messages are stored on your device

Your messages belong to you. That's why your messages are stored on your phone, and we don't share them with advertisers.

You control your privacy

Choose additional layers of protection to suit your privacy needs.

View once

Send photos and videos that disappear after a single view.

Two-step verification

Add extra security when you sign in to your account.

Lock your WhatsApp

Enable Touch ID, Face ID, or Android fingerprint lock to secure your WhatsApp.

End-to-end encrypted backups

Encrypt messages saved in your iCloud or Google Drive.

Last seen and Online

Choose to be seen by only those you want – everyone, your contacts, some of your contacts, or no one.

Disappearing messages

Control how long messages stick around before they disappear.

Block and Report

Keep unwanted contacts and messages out of your chat list.

Group privacy settings

Choose whether everyone, all your contacts, or only some contacts can add you to a group chat.

We're committed to keeping you safe
