Change Summary
WhatsApp reorganized the language selection interface in its Terms of Service footer on August 25, 2026. Previously, the footer listed all 27 available languages in a single flat list. The updated layout groups languages by geographic region (Africa and the Middle East, Americas, Asia-Pacific, Eastern Europe, Western Europe) with a 'Select a region' prompt. This is a structural reorganization of how users access the terms in different languages, not a change to the substantive terms themselves.
