You may soon get a new feature on WhatsApp that will eliminate the need to share your mobile number with strangers. Yes, the American messenger app WhatsApp is working on a username feature. This new feature will eliminate the need to share your phone number with strangers, allowing you to chat or video call anyone using your username. WhatsApp is an American messenger app owned by Meta, which owns major social media platforms like Instagram and Facebook.
A mobile number will no longer be required to log in to WhatsApp.
Since its launch, a mobile number has been required to use WhatsApp. Without a mobile number, you can neither log in to WhatsApp nor connect with anyone. WhatsApp now wants to eliminate the need for a mobile number to log in to the app and introduce the option of logging in using a username. According to media reports, WABetaInfo has spotted this feature being tested on the Android beta version.
Opportunity to create a custom username for WhatsApp
According to reports, this new WhatsApp feature has been spotted on Android beta 2.25.28.12, where the username reservation option is currently available in the settings. This means that you can reserve your desired username in the beta version and use it once the feature is launched. Keep in mind that your WhatsApp username shouldn't start with www. Each username must contain at least one English letter. Additionally, you can create your own username by adding numbers and special characters.
