A better product? I don't like most of the things they've added, like statuses, stickers, or invite links.

- nindalf 8y agoPerhaps you take the basic features for granted. For example, it works well on a wide variety of devices, especially those with low specs. What about audio quality, which has gradually improved to the point where people I know don't make "normal" calls anymore. What about latency on awful connections. Often when I'm in a place with poor reception, Whatsapp works when other apps don't. All of these aren't build-and-you're-done kind of features. You need to invest continuously to make sure you don't regress. And the flipside is that people will look at your app and say "what have you done for me lately? What features have you added?"
- diazon 8y agoI am afraid I don't know much about call quality as I don't make calls through WA, but WA has always worked well on devices with low specs, and adding more features will only make it worse, not better.
- Aeolun 8y agoI don’t know, but didn’t whatsapp subscribe to the idea that if you build something well the first time around you won’t need to keep supporting it. Which was the reason they could scale to their current userbase with some 50 people.
- baby 8y agoI have no idea what are these things, and I've never heard of them eventhough I use whatsApp daily. Please.
