With the rollout of iOS 18.2, Apple empowered iPhone users by allowing third-party apps to be designated as the default for messaging and calling. WhatsApp has begun beta testing for version 25.8.10.74, which enables users to set it as the default app for both calls and messages. This integration means that any tap on a phone number in apps will direct users to WhatsApp, offering a more streamlined communication experience. Currently, this feature is available to selected beta testers, with no definitive date for a wider public release.
