TheWindows 10 WhatsApp apphas just updated to Version 2.17.114 and has brought back text status updates after replacing them with the new Snapchat/Instagram Story-esque feature in the previous update. To use these basic text status updates now, users will need to go into the Profile settings and edit the appropriate text field.

WhatsApp is a free communications app that can be used to send text and multimedia messages to other users as well as making voice calls. Many people use WhatsApp because it can be much cheaper for many users especially when used over a Wi-Fi connection.

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time).

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web.

Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they’re looking for.
