Yes, since WhatsApp indicated its privacy policy change, which allows Facebook to use the data, many users are shifting to other messaging platforms.
Telegram benefitted largely, as they have crossed 525 million users. The newly shifted WhatsApp users don’t want to miss their chat history. So, Telegram now added a new feature to import all WhatsApp chat in its iOS app. Soon, we can expect this feature in its Android version.

But, with the users unhappy with their decision to share user’s data, WhatsApp may lose its user base vastly.Coming back to the Telegram update, it also includes a new feature where users can adjust volumes for every individual contact. And also now users can report fake groups or channels.
