Now, Perplexity is even available on messaging platforms like WhatsApp, so you can add it as a contact and chat with it as you would with any friend—no special app or login required24. The integration allows you to ask anything, get real-time answers, and even continue chats as an ongoing conversation within WhatsApp24. Creating a free Perplexity account also lets you save your chat history, so you can revisit or build on previous conversations1.

Whether you want information, a chat, or research help, Perplexity’s design lets you interact in a way that feels natural and friendly134.
