Your WhatsApp Number Can Stay Private Now: How To Reserve Your Username

WhatsApp has introduced a new Username feature designed to address privacy concerns by allowing users to connect without sharing their phone numbers. This rollout is currently gradual, meaning only some users can already reserve their usernames to prevent others from taking them. By implementing this system, WhatsApp enables a more private way for individuals to communicate, ensuring that personal phone numbers remain hidden while maintaining the ability to establish connections across the platform.
