WhatsApp Makes Adding and Managing Contacts More Private and Convenient

Keeping your communication secure and organized just got easier on WhatsApp!

Starting soon, you’ll be able to add and manage your contacts directly from WhatsApp Web and Windows, giving you more flexibility beyond your mobile device. This update lets you effortlessly add new contacts using your keyboard, making the process faster and more convenient.

But that’s not all! We’re also introducing the ability to save contacts exclusively to WhatsApp. This is perfect if you share your phone with others or want to keep personal and business contacts separate when managing multiple WhatsApp accounts on the same phone. These WhatsApp-specific contacts will even be restored if you lose your device or switch to a new one.

Looking ahead, these updates pave the way for future features like managing contacts by usernames. This will allow you to connect with people on WhatsApp without needing to share your phone number, offering an extra layer of privacy. We’ll have more details to share about usernames as soon as they’re ready.
