Hey fellas! Nowadays you might have heard a lot about WhatsApp launching its video calling feature. Now, is it real or fake? Today I am going to give a quick explanation.
I first heard about this on YouTube: that WhatsApp had finally announced its video calling feature.
Some days back, I uploaded a post about WhatsApp beta testing. I even participated in the beta testing of WhatsApp. Now the question is, is it real or fake?
To find out whether the WhatsApp video call is real or fake, I tried using the feature. I tried installing an app on my Android device that was not from the Play Store.
When I tried installing WhatsApp on my Android device, the first thing that disappointed me was that the app didn't install. If WhatsApp had released this version, the app would have installed on my device without any issues. This made me think that the app is fake.
Now, if WhatsApp released this version, why didn't they publish the app on the Play Store? Why do users have to download it from a site called Apkmirror?
If WhatsApp wanted to publish the video call feature, they would have published it on the Play Store for their beta testers, or on their official site. That was disappointing. It makes sure that the app has been modded by someone else.
These two things made me feel that this app is fake. If you try to install it on your Android device, you might lose some of your private information. Your chats might also get leaked to third-party companies or some kind of hackers. If WhatsApp didn't publish this app, why install it on your Android device?
Modding is something anyone can do. If you are an Android app developer, you can also add something to your own WhatsApp. That is dangerous if you try to install it on your Android device.
Conclusion:
We think this app is fake, and users, please don't install it on your Android device. Try installing the original app from the Play Store. Don't try anything that harms your security.
