Can I log out from WhatsApp and disconnect?
Sorry, no. Our Nokia version of the application is designed to always be online and connected. If you are concerned about your data usage, we strongly recommend that you sign up for unlimited internet data plan to take full advantage of our service.

From WhatsApp website. I guess that's that.

Yup this is true. WhatsApp doesn't consume that much data.

So, from what I gather: WhatsApp is good for cheap messaging because it is based on either Wi-Fi connection or data package BUT for Nokia phones, there is no way to turn the application off from either trying to search for a Wi-Fi connection/3G connection, thereby eating up battery life. So, in the long run, is it even a good app for Nokia phones? Unless WhatsApp comes up with an "off" button, it will just continue to search and search for connection, right?  unsure.gif

I understand now the point of whatsapp is to always be connected. No way they will give option to turn it off, no matter how many updates they are going to do because that would beat the purpose of whatsapp.
What I want is for them to integrate symbian's push notification properly so it won't drain battery like it does now.
Anyway even as it is, I would never call it a bad app.
