WhatsApp today officially announced the introduction of the ability to save a contact directly on the WhatsApp application, and no longer need to save in the phone's contact book. With this move, users no longer need to fill out the contact book, and keep saving someone – like a contact for business, on WhatsApp directly.
WhatsApp says users can also save it using WhatsApp Web, or on desktop, and not limited to mobile devices only.
At the same time, WhatsApp shared that this is the first step before they introduce a username feature on WhatsApp, making it easier for users to add contacts using usernames without having to share phone numbers. However, the official introduction timeline for this feature has not been shared yet.
