The company's FAQ page reports: "Telegram has over 700 millionmonthly active users and is one of the 10 most downloaded apps in the world."

Keep in mind it's also younger than WhatsApp and isn't owned by Meta. WeChat is dominant in China(and the enormous population there)

Viber was the weirdest thing. It was much better than WhatsApp, but decided to become a social network, failing miserably.

There's a Whatsapp app for iOS and Android, unless people don't use their iPhones or Android-based smartphones outside the house.

Do you mean there's no Whatsapp for iPad because they can't track and monetize people's behavior inside of the house? If that's the case, then why is there a Whatsapp app for the Mac and Windows?

I meant they can't track outside the house with a tablet most users keep their tablets at home.

Looks good. Now can we have an iPad app, please?

Signal has an iPad app. And macOS.

Really useful addition. Should have been there a long time ago.

Not only did Telegram have this feature already, but you can also make custom filters, too. Also, Telegram supports iPad, and has also announced that they’re working on a version for Apple Vision Pro. I have no idea why people continue to use WhatsApp when it only supports iPhone, lacks so many features, etc., when better alternatives exist.

Dude WhatsApp is available on Android, Mac, windows. You can even run it from a web browser. Where you get the idea it’s iPhone only?
