This idea could have been an extremely practical innovation for Whatsapp could be.
But the promising one Whatsapp-Plan is now off the table. The “Handelsblatt” reports on it.
Whatsapp: This innovation is not coming for the time being
The idea: to send messages to and receive from all other messenger services with Whatsapp.

Or in the words of the SPD, which has included this demand in its election manifesto for the upcoming federal election: “It must be possible to communicate or switch between different messenger services, social networks and digital platforms.”
For WhatsApp users, this would have advantages at first glance: They could also send messages to friends who prefer to text with Threema, Telegram and Co. The SPD would like to make this option legally mandatory.

This is Whatsapp:
- The instant messaging service was founded in 2009 in Santa Clara, USA by Jan Koum and Brian Acton
- In 2014, Facebook Inc. bought Whatsapp for $ 19 billion
- The application is available for Android and iOS

But it seems to be sticking to the idea for the moment. The party received no support from the EU. “That is what is demanded in the EU Parliament, but we have not yet joined it,” said Vice-Commission President Margarethe Vestager.

Because at second glance, the advance also has disadvantages. Vestager: “It could also stifle innovations.” As an example, she cites the SMS: “It has been around for a very long time, and it has hardly developed any further. The new functions of the messenger, for example that you can create groups, do not exist with SMS. “
Whatsapp compatible with other messengers? EU sees this problem
If the EU Commission were to stipulate that all messengers must be compatible with each other, it is conceivable that such an innovation stop would also apply to Whatsapp. That would be a shame for the users, after all, the makers keep surprising with new functions.

However, there are approaches in the EU that will soon affect all smartphone users: they want to stipulate that several app stores can be installed on one mobile phone.
“But we don’t go so far that these stores have to be compatible with each other,” she told the “Handelsblatt“. (vh)
