- Now people can create a unique username for their profile
- Now you can chat without sharing the number
- This feature is still being developed
You know that WhatsApp works by phone number, but now there is a big change coming! WhatsApp users will reportedly be able to create a unique username for their profile. That means now you can chat without sharing the number. Initially it will be available only on WhatsApp Web. Let us tell you that this feature is still being developed. WhatsApp is constantly updating its design. WhatsApp Web's new interface shows that the company is focusing on perfecting this feature.
How will it work?
WhatsApp is planning to bring a feature that will work like other social media apps. In this feature you will be able to choose a unique username for your profile. Just make sure this username is not taken by someone else. This feature may be available in the next update. One special thing is that WhatsApp username will be completely unique. Unlike other social media apps, there will be no number or code associated with it. With this, one will not face any problem in finding the username and will not get any error.
Your information will be secure
While you will be able to choose a username on WhatsApp, you have to be careful that it is not taken by someone else. This will be your unique identity, through which you will connect with others. The best part is that choosing a username will hide your phone number. But don't worry, your old contacts who already know your number will be able to talk to you like before. Username is only useful for people who don't know your number. They can only find you by your username. With this, your personal information will be more secure than ever and you will be able to control who can talk to you.
Feature coming soon
There are discussions about using the username feature on WhatsApp, but it is still being developed. That means when it will come and everyone will get it, it is not yet clear. WhatsApp is working very well on making this feature easy to use, safe and hassle-free. It is difficult to say when this feature will come.
