WhatsApp Status is Facebook's latest rip-off of Snapchat Stories

06 November 2016
Facebook has really taken the fact that it couldn’t acquire Snapchat to heart. So much so that it has constantly tried to emulate the service, first by releasing its own version (remember Slingshot?) and later adopting its most popular feature - Stories - in its Instagram and Facebook Messenger apps.

yeah stop beefing up whatsapp..its lean now...i can keep data on all the time and still plough through the day...go mess up your own app..wait its already a mess...do people still use twitter and facebook? i keep them to remember birthdays now..

    No don't. WhatsApp is good because it's simple and light on battery. Every little feature they add is gonna make it lose that.

      whatsapp used to be straight forward but now its turning into another social messaging app with too many feature and thanks to this new feature , expect more people leaving whatsapp for telegram because of privacy and avoid misunderstanding

        But I think they are going to ruin a simple WhatsApp app, sooner or later.

          Now this particular one I like. I would really like to see my status, cause its always either the f off word or don't disturb one, cause most losers don't get it in a modest way.

          Kudos WhatsApp, don't like it but hey all are using it!
