WhatsApp is planning to add a username feature, so users can reach other people without the need for a phone number.
, the messenger app will soon set the ability to add a username. With that in mind, people will no longer need to share their phone numbers, as a username will be enough to find someone on the platform.
It’s important to note that there are no references to this feature on the iOS beta version of the app, although it’s likely that it could launch for both platforms in the future. WABetaInfo says that WhatsApp “may allow users to communicate with businesses privately, thus safeguarding their phone numbers, or perhaps their usage will be even more extensive, allowing private communication with any user.”
