It was founded by Jan Kokum and Brian Acton in 2009 and acquired by Facebook Inc. in 2014. Today, WhatsApp has more than 2 billion active users worldwide, making it the most popular messaging app globally.



History:


The idea behind WhatsApp was born in 2009, when Jan Koum and Brian Acton, both former employees of Yahoo!, decided to create an instant messaging app that would be simple, fast, and secure. They wanted to create a messaging app that would work on any smartphone, regardless of the operating system, and that would be free of charge.



The first version of WhatsApp was released in the App Store in 2009 and was available only for the iPhone. The app was an instant hit, and within a year, it had more than 250,000 active users. In 2010, WhatsApp was released for Android, and in 2011, it was released for BlackBerry and Windows Phone.



In 2013, WhatsApp reached 200 million active users, and in February 2014, Facebook acquired the company for $19 billion. The acquisition was controversial, with many people questioning the high price that Facebook paid for the app.
