Early reading. We have captured 1 original post for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.

A typical post picks up 1.1K interactions against 5.4M followers, an engagement rate of 0.021%. Posts are seen about 168K times each, and 0.675% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.09% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.03 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 3% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 16:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 152K interactions, about 134x its own typical post. Only 1 original post have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 37,071 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 105,527 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

This account posts most often around 16:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

    your phone number is personal and sometimes you want to connect without handing it over. that's why we're introducing usernames for WhatsApp. starting this week, you can reserve a username to use later this year when we launch the feature. It takes just a few seconds, make sure you have the latest version of WhatsApp and then go to Settings > Account > Username.

    Today the Russian government attempted to fully block WhatsApp in an effort to drive people to a state-owned surveillance app. Trying to isolate over 100 million users from private and secure communication is a backwards step and can only lead to less safety for people in Russia. We continue to do everything we can to keep users connected. Сегодня российские власти попытались полностью заблокировать WhatsApp в попытке заставить людей перейти на государственное, незащищенное от слежки приложение. Старания изолировать более 100 миллионов пользователей без права на частное и безопасное общение — это шаг назад, который может привести только к снижению безопасности людей в России. Мы продолжаем делать всё возможное, чтобы пользователи оставались на связи.

What is WhatsApp's engagement rate on X?
