I am with Truecaller now.

I already have it mos

I already have that feature on my iPhone.

How about dark mode and cloud-based WhatsApp just like Telegram, always behind with tech.

At last....

Forget it, I will rather delete whatsapp. Facial Recognition is enough now my fingers. Forget it.

Facebook at it again, collecting our biometric data

That app I used has had that for years. Much much better than this app.

It will help even I left it at home no one will open my what's app

Can't wait for WhatsApp to introduce dark mode and fingerprint lock 🔑 in their Android app
