WhatsApp Watch
Description
Spring 2024
WhatsApp Watch is a platform that enables persistent and privacy-respecting data gathering from WhatsApp groups. This platform allows data donors to share data from publicly accessible WhatsApp groups they are part of. The DDSS grant enabled us to build a new feature into our platform to share personalized analytics with data donors and gather additional information from them through a chat mechanism. Our goal is to encourage data donation through an improved user experience and to benefit researchers who need better channels to reach the participants in their studies while preserving their anonymity.
