Whatsapp was declared officially free by the companys president, Jan Koum.
Far from what you might be thinking! The application will still remain free of adverts as the company seeks to maintain its advert free policy.
The company in a blogpost wrote:

“That’s why we’re happy to announce that WhatsApp will no longer charge subscription fees. For many years, we’ve asked some people to pay a fee for using WhatsApp after their first year. As we’ve grown, we’ve found that this approach hasn’t worked well. Many WhatsApp users don’t have a debit or credit card number and they worried they’d lose access to their friends and family after their first year. So over the next several weeks, we’ll remove fees from the different versions of our app and WhatsApp will no longer charge you for our service.”
This move from Whatsapp is to enhance its competition against other instant messaging apps that are free, many have already been switching to Telegram for one of these features, but there are still a question of who can see your interactions aside you on whatsapp ( privacy)
