WhatsappTime is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that may affect your browser negatively.

The name of this PUP intentionally deceives the users that it is legit. As you may notice if you open Whatsapptime.timeapp-studio.com, which is its official site, WhatsappTime is not associated with Whatsapp or Facebook in any way. The developers of the questionable application introduce themselves as 'a bunch of awesome dudes from around the globe.' They try to gain revenue from the Web activity of the PC users. WhatsappTime has some typical adware features. WhatsappTime generates commercial materials of all kinds, including pop-ups, banners, interstitial and transitional ads, hyperlinked words or embedded multimedia files. These ads may promote different coupons or exclusive offers that may redirect you towards third-party affiliate pages.

This data may be used to make some ads appropriate for you. Clicks on them make the developers of this PUP receive certain commissions for redirecting you to their partners.

You may even notice pop-ups encouraging you to dial the phone number of fake security specialists.
