Whatsapp will now improve the change number feature on the Android, iOS and window devices. Whatsapp is looking at making the change process flawless and without no consequences. The last time I used the change phone number feature, I had to go round my contacts one after the other saying ‘Hey, here’s my new number’. All thanks to the upcoming update, I will no longer have to sweat about notifying contacts.

Your contacts will be notified when you ‘ change phone number ‘

A WhatsApp user will change his WhatsApp number and data will be moved from the old number to the new one. Meaning chats and others are retained with no loss, group members in existing groups will be notified of the change.
