For those who haven’t yet encountered WhatAlert, WhatsApp’s latest addition, here’s a quick rundown. WhatAlert is a new app introduced by WhatsApp, the most widely used and practical instant messaging program of recent years.
WhatAlert provides comprehensive statistics about your selected contacts from your WhatsApp list. It shows how long they’ve been online, how many times they’ve logged in and out, the exact times they were online, and how long they stayed online before going offline.
Following the introduction of Last Seen and Blue Tick features, WhatsApp now allows you to gain even clearer insights into how much time your friends, partners, or family members spend on instant messaging.
A few months ago, WhatsApp introduced an app called WhatsDog, which allowed users to track the online status of one selected contact. However, due to technical issues and controversies, WhatsApp discontinued it. Now, WhatAlert has arrived to fill that void, offering an improved version of tracking features.
Since its launch, WhatsApp has become one of the fastest-growing messaging apps globally. Beyond personal use, it’s also widely employed as a business communication tool, serving as a live support or customer service platform for many brands.
With over 1 billion active users, WhatsApp continues to cater to user needs with innovative features. Android users can download WhatAlert from the Google Play Store, while iOS users can access it via the App Store. The trial version allows users to track one person at a time, while the premium subscription unlocks the ability to monitor multiple contacts.
As WhatAlert gains traction among users, it’s also generating plenty of discussion. Concerns are being voiced, particularly on social media, about the app’s potential to strain relationships. Just as the Blue Tick and Last Seen features caused issues for couples and families, many worry that WhatAlert could lead to new complications in personal interactions.
