WhatsApp Channels Surpasses 500 Million Monthly Active Users in First 7 Weeks, Says Mark Zuckerberg

On Wednesday, Mark Zuckerberg, the Founder and CEO of Meta, shared exciting news about WhatsApp Channels, revealing that it has surpassed a monthly active user base of 500 million within the first 7 weeks.

Zuckerberg expressed his enthusiasm, stating, "500 million monthly activities on WhatsApp Channels in the first 7 weeks! Great to see the WA community so engaged," while making the announcement on his WhatsApp Channel.

WhatsApp Channels, a recently launched feature on the messaging platform, enables users to receive updates from individuals, organizations, and teams they follow. Channels operate independently from private chats, and the list of users one follows is not visible to other followers.

Meta introduced WhatsApp Channels in September, and the platform has continually enhanced its features, including the recent addition of stickers.


Earlier this week, the Meta-owned messaging platform introduced another feature—a new voice chat capability for large groups. This feature, resembling a group call, allows participants to join quietly with an in-chat popup notification, instead of ringing each member individually.
