i purchased the iphone version for $0.99 when i was using iphone 4 then switched to sgs2 and mine shows expiration of oct 2020, didnt pay for android one

yeah, that is because you don't buy the app on android, you pay for your Account.
so when you bought it on iPhone, you registered with your phone number, which is your account.

Damn, I've paid for it a week ago, when it said it was going to expire. Oh well, it was just 2 dollars, more than worth it.

Strange, it should be a one-time-only purchase, like on the iPhone. Hate when this happens!

Weird thing is I got whatsapp for free but my expiration date shows 2021 :S

When did you get it? Like just? Or was there like a promotion sometime ago?

How you guys do the 2021 hack?

eSche · Nov 15, 2011

I never paid for it and have a license till 2020... and I reinstalled it a few times by now. I hope it will work for you guys too. I activated mine the first time in january 2011 I think (maybe was a promotion?)...

Hehe, mine expires on 7th of September 2021. No idea why, could be because I downloaded it when it was a beta.

did you shift to android from IOS? if you did, that could be the reason.. I have friends who migrated from iphone to galaxy s2 and their whatsapp expires in 2021.

666fff · Nov 16, 2011

Nope. Just got it when it first came out. I think its because I got it when it was a beta, from outside the Market, so they gave the beta testers longer subscription.

Is there a way to get whatapp for free after the free trial?
on iPhones it's 1 dollar to purchase it and you only pay one time.
in Android phones it's 1 year free trial and then 2$ per year...

Why do they even take money for it?
I mean, Kakaotalk is free anyway, and it's as good as whatsapp...

Please tell me if there's a way, even contact me in private messages if this is illeagal to talk about such things on here.

2$ for a years use of an app that you like

..... its not that bad really is it???

Well I think it is a rip off considering that apple users have to pay only £0.70GBP and we Android users have to pay $2 every year. It is unfair on the android users. I would not be complaining if they also had to pay $2 every year. It is just a matter of principles
Anyways, to get the same value for money as iphone users, disconnect the wifi/packet data (internet) on your android, get a friend who has an iphone to uninstall his app. Reinstall WhatsApp on the iphone using your phone number (Android). You will recieve an SMS on your Android phone. Input the 3 digit code in the iphone to verify the number. Once done, the friend can uninstall WhatsApp and reinstall again using his number. You just need to uninstall WhatsApp on your Androud phone, reconnect to the internet, download WhatsApp from the Market or their website and thats it. 10 years subscription for just £0.70. (free on downloaded jailbroken iphone).

There is absolutely no need to swap sim cards from one phone to the other. There problem solved. Now lets stop complaining.

LOL: I don't have a frend with an I phoid so wath to do next?

Robert333 · Dec 28, 2011

Acctually WhatsApp is free, once your license expires, they will renew it for half a year. And they do this enless

jhigh · Jan 14, 2012

They have to do this endlessly, because only a few will pay for it. Whatsapp is nice to have but not necessary, there is viber, skype, gtalk and a lot other free IM services.

They have to change their buisness model, pay once on iOS while all other plattforms have to pay annually is simply not fair.

Uninstall and re-download it from Market..

Simple

License time isn't related to the time the app has been on your phone, it is related to your phone Number. So no matter what you do you still have the same license time as the first time you set up your number. The only way to get more time is to switch to another phone number.

Also License could renew "automatically" as has been stated above but I haven't been able to check if it's true because my license expires on april. Guess we'll just have to wait.

considering i can use up to 5000 messages a through whatsapp
2$ a year is nothing
I just paid for it via paypal.

Using an alternative is a no-go for me, since all my friends and family use whatsapp

asp2010 · Feb 27, 2012

A lot of my friends use Whatsapp, but, honestly, out of all the alternatives I find it to be the worst choice. GTalk is very easy to use, but can be unreliable sometimes. I'd say go for Viber, but it happens to be being blocked by my carrier, so it's not an option for me.

I have yet to try GroupMe (by Skype) and I've also seen Beep (by IM+). Has anybody got experiences with these that they could share?

Thanks!
