WhatsApp ends 2020 with a bang, sets new all-time record as people celebrate New Year apart

Facebook's Messenger and WhatsApp generated the biggest spikes in messaging, photo uploads, and social sharing during New Year's Eve even before COVID-19. However, since last year has been unusual, to say the least, it's no wonder that even more people have used social network services to celebrate New Year's Eve.
As far as Messenger goes, New Year's Eve 2020 was the biggest day ever for Messenger group video calls in the United States, with nearly twice more group video calls on New Year's Eve compared to the average day.
Finally, there were more than 55 million live broadcasts across Facebook and Instagram globally on NYE, an impressive number even considering the circumstances.
