My supervisor made us all have to use it.
I noticed the app already on my phone without having to download it.

Not a fan of it.
Don't like how you can see everyone's phone number.

I don't want people at work having my number.
Is there a way to hide your number in the settings?

There's isn't a way to do it. Why don't you just tell your supervisor that you're not comfortable with your colleagues having your PERSONAL mobile number. Pretty sure they can't say make you use it in that context.

If your boss wants you on Whats app, then get him to give you a mobile phone, just for business use.
I don't know if I can convince him?
Unfortunately I'm not a red head.
It's only redheads who are good at negotiating workplace perks.

Mate it's simple... just tell him that you don't want others having you phone number and see what he says. Is your boss a power-tripper?

I didn't know what's app displayed phone numbers of people you haven't added?

I never wanted it. I just ran out of credit and didn't get around to getting more so was told to use this.

I'm going to get a new SIM card anyway.
I'll do that. Get a new number and delete what's app from my phone.

I hate apps.

The only app or game I play now is SIM city build it.

Telegram app is an alternative, requires a username rather than cell phone number.

Flop your cock out and WhatsApp it to everyone (if that's how it works).

Tell them you got confused and thought you were sending it to your partner.

Guarantee it gets uninstalled shortly after.

It's a mobile chat application where you can send text messages and files with your mobile phone contacts instead of having to use ad waste credit sending a standard text messaging. However only works if you are connected to wifi or have data on your mobile phone plan (If you use your mobile data it will go towards your monthly data bill).

You can also make phone calls from it using your data - like what Facebook does. Video calls too (I think).

Yes you can Wahesh Indeed you can make voice and video calls provided you have wifi or mobile data turned on.

My phone is basically connected to the home wifi system from the moment I walk into the house. I hardly ever use data. Usually I'll use the hot-spot on my work phone when I'm on the go.
