“All your friends in one place”says the new information title shown to some users at the top of the application. This is not a notification that interoperability is coming, but a reminder to attract more users to WhatsApp.

there still is People who don’t have WhatsApp and they want to recruit you from Meta so you can recruit them. The move is at least intriguing and appears to be trying to catch up with the last stragglers so they can communicate with WhatsApp via other apps. At least in Europe.

Invite your friends

WhatsApp is showing a new information box at the top of its main window with the text “All your friends in one place” and the description “Do you have many messaging apps? Invite your friends.” The idea is Invite everyone to use WhatsApp and remove all alternatives. At least that’s what its creators wanted.

Today on WhatsApp nearly 2 billion users According to Statista, they plan to increase this number worldwide with your help. What you need to do to do this is easy Invite your contacts who don’t yet have an account to use WhatsApp. This was already possible from the app settings, but now it’s just a tap away.

The moment it arrives is intriguing to say the least. WhatsApp has been around since last month Preparing to open your chats to other applicationsThis will make it possible for someone with Signal (if Signal eventually includes support for WhatsApp interoperability) to send messages to their contacts on WhatsApp.

This would be a way to keep “all your users in one place”, but In Meta they prefer all users to be on WhatsAppespecially before interoperability arrives and they have even less reason to do so. If you don’t want to invite anyone, you can dismiss the notification by tapping the X, but in my case it appeared a few more times.
