Freedom not to use phone number WhatsAppWebSpecial for…

As you know, the obligation to use a phone number on the internet and social media has spread to almost every medium. Even to register on an ordinary website, you may need to enter your phone number. In this field, especially among social media platforms, Telegram stood out in hiding your phone number. It seems that Meta will try to respond to Telegram with WhatsApp.

WhatsApp plans to offer its users the ability to create a unique username, similar to other social media platforms. Thanks to this new feature, users will be able to choose a username that is not used by anyone else. Unlike platforms like Discord, WhatsApp usernames will be unique and will not contain any distinguishing tags.

Even if you choose a username, people who know your phone number will still be able to find you on WhatsApp and contact you. However, creating a username will provide an additional layer of privacy. Only people who know your username or phone number will be able to start a chat with you.

For now, this new feature is being developed only for WhatsApp Web users. Since the feature is still under development, it can be said that WhatsApp is constantly improving its design. The latest updates of WhatsApp Web will come with radical changes such as a new interface and login with a username.
