But WhatsApp wasn't free?
Many users continue to ask themselves this question. The answer, unfortunately, is no. The service of WhatsApp messaging is not free But, then, Why have I never had to pay for it until now? The application of WhatsApp offers its usersone year of service as a trial totally free In other words, one year of use without any kind of cost to get to know the application, try it and, as has happened to many, remain hooked to her.However, after said period of time, WhatsApp requests the service renewal payment to continue using it for another year.
It is normal for users of this application to continue with the confusion And it doesn't help that, randomly and automatically the service is renewed for many users for free Something that has been happening until this month of March . With this, most users who have used WhatsApp for several years have seen how their free subscription was automatically renewed without the need to make any kind of payment. It is not known if due to WhatsApp error or benevolence However, it seems that things have become serious and from now on no more free renewals Tap pay via WhatsApp
You have to understand that WhatsApp is a small company or startupand, as such, look for its benefit The creators of this useful tool explain it in the official blog , offering their vision and experience after working in the Yahoo search engine Thus, they comment that, although the business within the applications is in the introduction of , they decided to do without itby knowing first-hand the weight it has on the user, and how tired he is of all the ads he consumes throughout the day. For this reason they decided to create a payment tool, with a cost that reports benefits but, at the same time, is within reason.
In this way, we must affirm that WhatsApp has always been paidHowever, the trial year that is offered for free has misled many. And it is that users of devices Android, BlackBerry, Nokia Symbian and Windows Phone have always been able to use this tool without any cost, at least for a year Quite a different matter for iPhone users, who from the beginning know well that to use WhatsApp you have to pay And it is that, except on few occasions where WhatsApp could be fully downloaded free during a limited time, these users have had to pay the 0, 89 euros that costs WhatsApp to be able to use it, if applicable, for life
In short, this tool that is already so deeply rooted in our society, and that continues to dispute the top of all most downloaded apps lists, regardless of platform, is paid Always has been. The key is that now it is more than ever. And it is that with each update, the developers of WhatsApp have been fine-tuning their renewals service to the point of eliminating free renewals, and fixing the amazing cases where the service extended until 2030 Therefore, from this moment on, when the time of a free year runs out, there is no choice but to pay to continue using WhatsApp
