WhatsApp, WhatsApp Messenger, Messaging Apps

If you’re running WhatsApp Messenger on the BlackBerry 10 operating system, you no doubt know that the native version of the app is new on the OS, and it’s already received a new update.

The latest version of the popular cross-platform instant messenger (version 2.9.3997.0) addresses some issues a number of users have reported, particularly with contacts, notifications, and media sharing. However, probably the most notable improvement in the latest version is the addition of a number of language improvements for English, Arabic, Spanish, Indonesian and finally, Turkish users.

If you’re expecting a complete makeover like that experienced on both Android and Windows Phone, you might be a bit disappointed; the update doesn’t bring any major new features to the OS, and we’re still waiting for that built-in coffeemaker. An improvement is an improvement, however, and we’re certainly not going to complain about any of those.

The new update is now available for download in the BlackBerry World app store.
