Arattai removes username feature following government block on WhatsApp
Zoho co-founder Sridhar Vembu announced that Arattai is disabling its username-based account functionality. This decision comes after the Indian government stopped WhatsApp from launching its own username feature. Arattai has become one of the initial messaging apps to openly comply with the government's recent regulatory direction. Arattai, which is developed by Zoho, provides users with tools for messaging, as well as voice and video calling.
