2026 marks the Year of the Fire Horse as it gallops in with bold energy into our lives, symbolising passion, momentum, and transformation. While we welcome prosperity with reunion dinners, red packets, and well-wishes, there’s one modern reality we can’t escape: our celebrations now live both offline and online.
Between unknown calls, nonstop group chats, and accidental message mishaps, digital chaos can easily sneak into our festive joy. And let’s be honest... nothing disrupts reunion harmony faster than a phone buzzing every 5 seconds.
This Lunar New Year, protecting your digital peace might just be the new way to invite good fortune.
A Martial Arts Guide… for Your Phone?
To help users stay safe, connected, and stress-free, WhatsApp has introduced “10 Ways to Unlock Luck” (开运秘籍) - a festive digital guide that cleverly reimagines privacy and communication tools through the lens of a traditional martial arts manual. Talk about ancient wisdom… but for surviving group chats, spam calls, and reunion planning chaos.
To bring this playful guide to life, Hong Kong screen icon Jessica Hsuan (宣萱) stars in a festive Instagram Reel, sharing how she uses WhatsApp’s latest features to turn her luck around this season.
