Is whatsapp data traffic free, but email traffic isn’t?



No, it was more a case that the whatsapp client was exceptionally lightweight - especially in 2012 when WhatsApp was basically free global SMS

The email client was much clunkier, presumably because it had to support all the other usage patterns of email.

Worth noting this was a phone that didn't have a touch screen and I was inputting via the numpad
