Currently, there's no limit on sending messages on WhatsApp. Users can send an unlimited number of messages daily, but this is set to change soon. WhatsApp is implementing a new measure to curb spam. This could include a monthly limit on messages sent to people who don't reply. This decision will apply to businesses as well as users. This decision is currently under consideration, and testing will begin soon.

How will the system work?

According to reports, Meta has confirmed that it will begin trials in several countries within the next few weeks. However, information on message limits has not yet been revealed. Once the new system is implemented, any message sent to a user who doesn't reply will count towards your monthly quota. For example, if you send two messages to someone and they don't reply, those two messages will count towards your monthly quota. Messages sent to users you chat with or who reply to your messages will not be counted.

 

Will it affect common users?

WhatsApp says this change won't affect ordinary users and their chats. This decision will impact individuals and business accounts that send block or spam messages. WhatsApp has over three billion users worldwide and is now being used for everything from political propaganda to marketing and fraudulent schemes. Despite imposing message forward limits and introducing several reporting tools, there hasn't been a reduction in spam messages. Meta hopes the new change will curb spam messages.
