WhatsApp is introducing a beta feature for European users that allows them to send and receive messages from other messaging platforms, starting with BirdyChat. This initiative is a response to the European Union’s Digital Markets Act (DMA), which requires major platforms to collaborate with competitors. Users can exchange messages, images, videos, and voice notes securely, although some WhatsApp features like status updates and disappearing messages will not be available in cross-platform conversations. The feature will be opt-in by default, allowing users to control communication preferences, and currently only BirdyChat is supported, with future integration from other apps expected. This feature is in beta within EU regions, with no plans for expansion outside Europe at this time.
