User Reviews

Users praise Arattai for strong privacy, a solid, feature-rich, and user-friendly experience, and its potential as a WhatsApp-like alternative. However, they frequently cite performance issues—especially slow media uploads and delivery—along with bugs in syncing and contact handling. They also request missing features such as message deletion and auto-delete, and note permissions prompts and some country-specific login problems. Overall sentiment is positive but with clear calls for fixes and improvements.

Pros

Strong privacy and data protection with encryption and no data sharing.
Feature-rich and user-friendly experience with solid core functionality.
Good WhatsApp alternative and a game changer for a homegrown messaging app.

Cons

Slow image and video uploads and overall media delivery delays.
Bugs and syncing issues (indexing problems, contact recognition with multiple numbers, username syncing).
Missing important features like delete messages for me or everyone and auto-delete options.
Permissions friction (repeated requests to grant contacts access) and some country-specific sign-in problems.

Recent reviews

Arattai Messenger is a promising alternative to WhatsApp, with a simple interface and useful messaging features. I would like more clarity about how user data, private messages, photos, and videos are protected. Clear information about encryption, data storage, and whether messages are accessible to third parties would help users feel more confident using the app. I also suggest adding a **“View Once”** feature for photos and videos. This would allow users to send sensitive media that disappears after being viewed, improving privacy and giving users more control over their content.

It’s been a few days since I started using Arattai. I don’t have any major complaints so far. The only feature I feel is missing is a dedicated Links section within individual chats, which would make it much easier to find shared URLs.
