Message privately

Your privacy is our priority. With end-to-end encryption, you can be sure that your personal messages stay between you and who you send them to.

Whether it's your confessions, your difficult debates, or your silly inside jokes, your conversations need to be protected

End-to-end encryption

Messages and calls stay between you. No one else can read or listen to them, not even WhatsApp.

Additional layers of privacy

Beyond end-to-end encryption, we add additional layers of protection to all of your conversations.

Control the privacy you need

You get to choose what you share, how you show up online, or who can talk to you.

Two-step
verification

Stay two steps ahead of intruders. Protect your account from hackers and scammers trying to use your phone number.

Disappearing messages

With disappearing messages, you can control which messages stick around and for how long, by setting them up to disappear after you’ve sent them.

Block
and report

Do away with unwanted chats. If someone you don’t want to chat with is messaging you, simply block them and WhatsApp will make sure you no longer receive their messages or calls.

Encrypted
backups

Keep your online backups private. Turn on encrypted backups to extend the security of end-to-end encryption to your messages saved in iCloud or Google Drive.

Last seen
and online

Choose to be seen by only those you want. You can customize your privacy settings to choose who can see when you’re online, and when you last used WhatsApp.
