WhatsApp breaks its record for daily messages
As reported just a few hours ago by the official WhatsApp account on the social network Twitter, the messaging application has just reaching a new milestone in its history This is a new figure of total messages throughout a single day , a figure that has reached 27,000 million A dizzying figure that is difficult to imagine, but which shows the growing trend of expansion of the most well-known and used messaging tool in the field of smartphones
According to WhatsApp in his tweet, this figure has been reached thanks to the sending of more than 10,000 million messages along with more than 17,000 million messages received An equation that is somewhat difficult to digest but easily explained due to the group conversations And, a single message written in a conversation with ten participants , for example, it will be received by each and every one of those members Issue that makes difficult the exact measurement of the total number of real messages sent and received but that ultimately shows the importance in the daily use of the application WhatsApp
These 27 billion messages beat by far the previous record made public by WhatsApp and that took place during the celebration of Nochevieja, moment of instant congratulations who managed to reach a total volume of 18.000 million messages sent and received only on December 31st Something that leads us to wonder about what event may have caused this large increase in message traffic between users of WhatsApp It must be taken into account that, in both achievements, the number of received messages is always higher, so the group conversations they have great importance. Perhaps this is where the increase in the number of messages comes from, since only a couple of months ago the limit of members, at least on the platform Android, was increased to 50 people A number that is quite exaggerated and in whose conversation it is difficult to integrate, but that may be one of the reasons for this figure.
We must not lose sight of the fact that WhatsApp continues to grow, increasing its number of users thanks to its geographic expansionSomething that he has not only achieved with his fame and the mouth-ear of users, but with collaborations and agreements with mobile operators to offer exclusive data rates for the use of this tool with a reduced cost. A plan that began to develop in the Asian continent and that could be paying off, given the figures achieved.
It is also remarkable that WhatsApp has achieved this growth despite the critics and the rejection of many users after starting to charging for the renewal of their servicesince last month of march Issue that allowed the arrival and strengthening of other messaging tools such as LINE or WeChat who now coexist with WhatsApp, but which, for From what we have seen, they do not reduce the use of this, even if you have to pay to use it.Of course, it must be recognized that they have not suffered failures or service outages again, another achievement achieved by handling the huge number of messages that circulate through their servers.
