Erlang was used to develop whatsapp.

Erlang is a bit slow...not widely used but some companies like facebook..amazon and yahoo have also used it.

C++, Java, C, and possibly others, but Java or C++ is probably your best bet. why not search on google "what language is whatsapp written in" ;)

Using Java or Swift to create native Android or IOS apps is most popular .But now using JavaScript such as ReactNative or weex can also do the same things. In fact, whatever kind of apps you want to create, it is not language's business. The idea is most important.
