100 Million Calls a day are being made by the whatsapp users on a daily basis; this was claimed by the facebook owned company on Thursday.

WhatsApp, the most popular instant messaging service used worldwide, started rolling out the voice calling feature to its users in phases last year. The voice-calling feature was first rolled out to WhatsApp users on Android followed by iOS, BlackBerry, and Windows Phone.

“For more than a year, people have used WhatsApp Calling to talk with friends and family around the world. It’s a great way to stay in touch, especially when connecting with people in other countries, or when messages alone won’t do. Today, more than 100 million voice calls are made every day on WhatsApp – that’s over 1,100 calls a second,” WhatsApp said in a blog post.

Co-founder and CEO said in a Facebook post, “Since the early days of WhatsApp, we’ve worked to tear down the boundaries that stand between people staying. In touch with their friends and family. A little over a year ago, we made it possible to make calls using WhatsApp – for those times when it’s important to hear a voice on the other end of your phone. Today, we’re proud that people are making 100 million calls a day on WhatsApp!” said Jan Koum, Co-founder and CEO while talking about how this has made the life easy.
