More than a year after rolling out the voice call feature, WhatsApp announced that there are more than 100 million voice calls made through its app every day. To put that figure into perspective, it is over 1,100 calls a second! 

This milestone highlights the popularity of WhatsApp among consumers today. In February, the instant messaging app had more than one billion active users! The voice call feature was introduced in April 2015 for Android users, followed by iOS several weeks later and Windows Phone a month later.

As WhatsApp calls rely on cellular connections (e.g. 3G and 4G) and Wi-Fi networks, consumers can avoid the costly per-minute charges for overseas calls.
