WhatsApp prohibits users of third party applications such as WhatsApp Plus

Whats App is not happy with the fact that people are using third-party clients such as Whats App Plus and has begun instituting bans within 24 hours on users that depend on them. According to Whats App, it is a violation of their "Terms of Service". Users of other applications such as Whats AppMD also will be affected.

In a statement posted on his blog, Whats App has officially accepted the ban and said that "Whats App Plus is an application that was neither developed by Whats App, nor authorized by Whats App. The developers of Whats App Plus are unrelated to Whats App, and that are not compatible with Whats App. Note that WhatsApp Plus contains the source code which Whats App can not guarantee and secure your private information that is potentially being passed to third parties without your knowledge or consent. "

WhatsApp want users to uninstall the unofficial apps and install the approved application to get rid of the ban version. Considering the number of security threats through third party applications, especially those that are loaded from the side, it is not surprising that WhatsApp has taken this step. These applications also use WhatsApp network without permission.

Recently, there were reports of WhatsApp test a function call. Although not officially confirmed, the screenshots point to the fact that the voice call is being tested and will appear as separate chat functionality. The call records, contacts and dialing screen is handled by separate displays, based on the screenshots.
