These so-called guest chats are currently in a testing phase and are being rolled out gradually to beta testers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After initially being tested in the Android beta, the feature is now also available to a small number of testers on iOS via TestFlight and in the WhatsApp Web beta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Previously, a conversation via WhatsApp was only possible if both participants had a registered account. The new guest chat function partially relaxes this principle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WhatsApp users will soon be able to create an invitation link for a chat. This link can be shared with people who don&#039;t have a WhatsApp account, allowing them to start a temporary conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-so-funktionieren-die-whatsapp-gastechats\">This is how WhatsApp guest chats work<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The guest chat function is based on a simple process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">A WhatsApp user creates a chat link in the \"Invite a friend\" section. This link can then be sent via SMS or other apps (via <a href=\"\/\/wabetainfo.com\/whatsapp-is-rolling-out-guest-chats-on-android-and-ios\/\u201c\" id=\"https:\/\/wabetainfo.com\/whatsapp-is-rolling-out-guest-chats-on-android-and-ios\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">WABetaInfo<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If someone without a WhatsApp account opens the link, a chat session starts via WhatsApp Web. Before the chat begins, the guest must:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>open the link<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>accept the WhatsApp terms of service<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enter a name<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Only then can the conversation begin. It&#039;s important that the guest actively starts the chat after receiving the link. Furthermore, anyone with the invitation code can join the chat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ende-zu-ende-verschlusselung-auch-fur-gaste\">End-to-end encryption also for guests<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Guest chats should also be protected by end-to-end encryption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When a guest starts a chat, WhatsApp Web creates a unique identifier from which an encryption key is generated. This allows only the participants in the conversation to read the messages, while WhatsApp itself has no access to the content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the chat, the name of an unregistered user is also marked with &quot;(Guest)&quot;. Additionally, a message appears indicating that the person is not registered with WhatsApp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-aktuelle-einschrankungen-der-funktion\">Current limitations of the function<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The guest chat feature is still under development and currently only supports a limited range of functions. The following features are currently unavailable:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Group chats<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Voice messages<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Attachments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stickers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>GIFs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Voice and video calls<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, guest chats expire automatically if there is no activity for 10 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-whatsapp-gastechats-sollen-neue-nutzer-erreichen\">WhatsApp guest chats are intended to reach new users<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The new guest chat feature could make WhatsApp more accessible to people who don&#039;t currently have an account. This could be particularly beneficial in markets like the US, where WhatsApp is less widespread, as it could lower the barrier to entry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, the feature is only available to a limited number of beta testers on Android, iOS, and the web. WhatsApp has not yet announced a date for a wider rollout.
