About this photo
A smartphone screen displays a WhatsApp-style interface with a large green graphic of an @ symbol surrounded by a paper plane, speech bubbles, and a smiling face. The headline reads “Usernames are coming soon. Reserve yours today.” Below are two bullet points explaining privacy controls and a key option, with a green “Create username” button and smaller options to use an Instagram or Facebook username. The top bar shows the time 9:41 and standard phone status icons.
