The messaging application WhatsApp is quite popular and widely used in many countries. Data compiled from various sources by Business of Apps shows that there were at least 2.44 billion WhatsApp users in the first quarter (January-March) of 2023.

With billions of users, how many messages are sent daily?

Will Cathcart, Head of WhatsApp, once stated that the total number of messages sent by all users reached 100 billion per day in 2020. This number is predicted to have increased by 2023.

Backlinko compiled the accumulated messages sent by all WhatsApp users. Back in 2011, the number of messages sent reached 1 billion per day.

Then, in January 2015, the number of messages sent increased to 30 billion per day. A year later, it increased again to 42 billion messages per day.

The increase in message sending reached 10 billion messages per day between 2015 and 2018. However, in 2020, two years after 2018, the number of messages sent increased significantly, by approximately 35 billion messages per day.

From October to December 2020, more than 100 billion messages per day were recorded. This is a significant achievement for WhatsApp.

"This year we've all relied on messaging more than ever to keep up with loved ones and get things done. We're proud WhatsApp is able to deliver around 100 billion messages every day and we're excited about the road ahead," wrote Will Cathcart on his Twitter account on October 30, 2020.
