WhatsApp Tests Cross-Messaging Feature Amidst Arattai's Growing Popularity

Imagine if you could send a message from WhatsApp to your friend who uses a different app, without needing to download that friend's app.

That's what people are talking about!

Sridhar Vembu, the boss of the company Zoho, wants all messaging apps to be able to talk to each other easily, like how you can send money from any bank app to any other bank app using something called UPI.

He has his own app called Arattai, which is becoming popular.

Now, it looks like WhatsApp is trying out this idea of letting its users message people on other apps.

Right now, this is only happening in Europe because of a new rule there.

It's like making all the toy stores work together so kids can get any toy from any store without having to visit each one separately.

We don't know yet if this will come to India or other places.
