I don't live in the states but most of the people i know there use WhatsApp.. Actually most of the people I know anywhere use it lol. I wondered what the basis of that comment was that in the US "nobody uses whatsapp" ๐Ÿคท... Maybe he meant nobody in his tight inner circle... Or maybe he doesn't know who's using WhatsApp because he doesn't use it

I've literally never met anyone that even knows what it is, although I thought it would be obvious just based on how people talk that I was speaking anecdotally and not from literal statistics. I come across Facebook messenger somewhat commonly but never Whatsapp.

Actually totally reverse for me, everybody uses whatsapp and I never hear of Facebook messenger ๐Ÿ˜…

Actual stats say 98 million people use WhatsApp in US, like 1 in 4, but I'd guess it's kinda regional or cultural..for example probably more in urban areas and I know for sure more in Latino communities lol
