In early 2019, Mark Zuckerberg announced his plans to integrate the messaging services across Instagram, WhatsApp, and Facebook Messenger. It would make it possible for users of these applications to chat with each other without worrying about the app they need to call or send a message to.
In th future, we expect to see Whatsapp get the same feature as Instagram and Facebook. “With this new update, you’ll have choice and controls to manage your privacy, including whether message requests go to your Chats list, your Message Requests folder, or whether you receive them at all,” Facebook said.
