WhatsApp 宣布將以用戶名稱（username）取代電話號碼 以加強用戶私隱！

WhatsApp is set to launch a new feature that allows users to create unique usernames and chat without sharing their phone numbers, offering greater privacy—particularly in group chats and business interactions. Until now, users had to exchange phone numbers to connect, a setup that raised concerns about personal data exposure.

The upcoming username feature, currently being tested in beta version 25.17.10.70 (as reported by WABetaInfo), aims to change that by letting users connect through usernames instead. These usernames must be 3–30 characters long, completely unique, include at least one letter, and can only contain lowercase letters, numbers, periods, or underscores. They cannot start with “www.” or end with extensions like “.com”.

Once a username is successfully created, WhatsApp confirms it with a fun confetti animation. From then on, people who don’t have your phone number will see your username in chats and group conversations, giving users more control over their identity and privacy.

更加方便啲老千揾食揾水魚

一早應該咁做

好多嘢都係抄tg但人哋一早有嘅嘢你依家先做?

係邊個邀請我入嚟嘅？

tg就係因為唔洗電話號碼所以先勁多詐騙..

developer 一年抄一項
好快退休

我諗仲可以抄足50年

仲好講，Carousell 唔留電話嘅買家放飛機率係多十倍八倍都唔止

但之後不斷喺WhatsApp賣廣告
逼你睇royal kingdom

whatsapp轉到同TG 咁玩法
會唔會以後多咗人用imessage

Signal 都係咁做, 我之前冇加嗰啲人入 telephone contact list, 已經睇唔返佢哋個手機號碼, 唉, 要打電話畀佢哋焗住用返個 apps

晨早要啦 人哋wechat晨早咁做

即係tg咁？

港豬會覺得好正

淨係收過whatsapp d廣告詐騙
tg無收過

我，加錯咗。你可以出返去。

試過咁答個group hang咗機。

跟住有啲人問呢個group係做咩。

我話係做愛。跟住成個group又靜咗。

詐騙app，只會令人越來越唔想用

你知唔知WhatsApp啲詐騙就係因為佢地用bot 鳩入電話號碼就加到你入去
Tg反而少喎

嗰時香港hit 係因為唔使登記一大輪嘢，而且電話號碼個個有，好方便乜乜乜

證明你唔識用tg
tg係好多功能
但用果D功能就會多詐騙grp/message
而你話tg無詐騙message
即係你根本唔識用
你淨係用黎同fd傾???

到時點確認？
電話號碼都睇唔到

幾十個小明

tg佢比你ban左換個id就再玩你一次
wtsapp佢要換/gen個新number先玩到你多一次
你究竟識唔識??
