How to Use Whatsapp - 2024 Beginner's Guide

- WhatsApp is the most popular messaging apps in the world and I want to show you exactly how to use in this video.
So what exactly is WhatsApp and why would you want to use WhatsApp instead of other messaging app or even text messages?
WhatsApp is messaging app where you can send text, photos, videos, group chats, and voice and video calls.
Whatsapp is free to use and only requires internet connection. One other key benefit is that it’s cross platform between iPhone and Android. So everyone has the same experience regardless of the device they are on.
Secure messaging: WhatsApp uses end-to-end encryption, a secure communication standard where only the people who are messaging can read the messages.
Whatsapp is the most popular messaging app in the world with 2 billion monthly active users.
You can download WhatsApp on the Google Playstore or the iPhone apps store.
And they have a desktop version too you can get at whatsapp.com
I removed my app on this phone, so I can show you the process from scratch.
During the setup process, WhatsApp will ask for your phone number to create an account for you. But it won’t use your phone data plan to send messages. It will use wifi.
When you land inside the app, you’ll see a menu on the bottom. Updates, calls, communities, chats and settings.
The first place to start is the chat icon. Here, you can invite a friend. Since it has access to your contacts on your phone, it will already know which one of your friends and family already has whatsapp account. If you don’t see them, you can add them or invite them.
You can also create a group chat here.
Inside of the message window, you have several options. First, you can send a simple text message. Type and press send.
Then you have the plus sign. That gives you access the the camera, your photo library, documents on your device, location, contacts and polls.
You can also send gifs and stickers. Next to that, you have the camera icon. This will give access to your camera to take a photo or video to send or use your photo library.
Next is the microphone icon, which allows you to send voice memo.
With any message, you can press and hold to get a different menu including an option to delete the sent message.
Now let’s look at phone calls or video calls. You will see that on top of the chat page.
Back in the main menu, you can also access your camera quickly from here or you can also start a phone call or video call from the call window. The chat window has all these options in one place.
And then you have an updates icon. Here, you can update your status. You can also join channels and create channels. These are basically groups or communities with no limit on followers.
And you have some options under the settings page worth exploring. Here, you can change your privacy. And data usage.
Next, I recommend watching WhatsApp top tips and tricks video for things we didn’t cover in this video or the WhatsApp AI video to take advantage of the AI options inside of WhatsApp.
The problem with many beginner's guides is that the presenter cannot remember what it's like to be a beginner. He begins cataloguing endless features and options, which just confuse the beginner. I need to contact a foreign hotel, which has given me a WhatsApp number: basic, beginner problem. 20 minutes later, I have no idea how to proceed.
i agree, this vid sucks. i am new to this, and my screen looks nothing like what his does.
@@jesvans Neither does mine. Seems every time I try to use What's-App, I get different screens, and I can't find or edit contacts. Not user-friendly at all.

yeah. this vid is far from a beginner's guide. a lot of people are not good teachers
Plz continue .
How can I look at the messages received?

very nice intro, I've seen a lot of negative videos about how this app tracks much of our information and sells it. I guess that's how they make money like many so-called free apps. Do you have any key features that can reduce that to a minimum? I believe a video explaining about the information collected and how to reduce it as much as possible would be very popular. ...Thanks
Easy, get a 2nd phone, and use it only/mostly for whatsapp, Mint does $10/month.
HELP please! After I enter my # I get a message that says “we couldn’t send an SMS to your number. Please check your number and try again in 1 hour” this has happened every time I try. Yes, my number is entered correctly. I have an IPhone but have several internal settings turned off. Wondering if that might be the problem. Not sure where to go from here. Thanks in advance

The message stays with you and the person you are communicating with (and then with every single "business partner," than can use whatever 'data' you create. Why do you think Whatsapp forces you to share your contacts?
Going on vacation wherein the resort uses this app for booking, tables, spa appts, room service meals etc., and to find out what the daily itinerary on campus will be. But I want to use a dormant phone, in case it gets stolen. Can I sign up with the phone number from my legit phone - in order to gain the sign up code - and then proceed as required with the dormant phone?
Can anyone make video cals thru any ap if already on whatsapp video cal.something like thru split screen.
Great video how did you animate tthe thumbs up button
You can use premade templates from Envato elements that have animation

Thanks for your video. I have created a group chat and the message but I don't know how to actually send the message out to the group. Could you please address that? Thanks.
Any idea why I get a message “app cannot be used due to spam”? I submitted a request for review but have checked my settings and all seem to be ok
can you use a different phone number for those who you do not want to see and have your real number? or have two different numbers number under the same account and use one for friends and family and the other for others?
I am new to this. Look into Google Voice, one phone with two numbers. I was a GS volunteer. Gave the parents my Google Voice number, instead of my personal cell number.
What app does the message send to because it won’t send to any of my apps

WhatsApp sucks, it's very counter-intuitive and a pain in the ass to use. Not to mention the security risk.

I'm at true beginner mode here. 2 Questions: If I want someone to contact me through whatsapp, what do I have to send them as my number to contact me? Where do I find what I use as my number?
You have to give them your phone number.

Do you have to use and share your personal cell phone number or does the app create a number

What is in it for WhatsApp? Why would they bother unless there is someting in it for them. They obviously sell your phone numer I would think.
Short answer: 1) The large user base fuels demand for WhatsApp for Business subscriptions from businesses, which you don't ever have to use. 2) The WhatsApp Pay service makes money like any other payment processor, which you don't ever have to use. 3) Facebook ads can direct users to businesses who use WhatsApp for Business, which you don't ever have to use.

I want to know how to connect watsapp
you must be using an iphone. screens are totally different on an android so it's pretty confusing from what you describe. I have a galaxy S23 plus phone.
I’ll have to do an android one then. Then big difference is the menu is on top showing chats, updates and calls instead of the bottom
@@Howfinity like on your phone it has five buttons on the bottom. On my phone it has three buttons on top. So when you show your five buttons and what they do it doesn't make sense when I only have three buttons
yea. Android puts settings in the three dots. and iPhone puts on on the bottom. But 80% of the video was inside the chat wiindow which is very similar. But I'll get myself an android.
