Whatsapp has said it is hoping to agree a deal with Brazilian officials to overturn a temporary ban on using it.
Mark Zuckerberg, boss at Facebook which owns the messaging app, has said he is stunned a judge has blocked it over privacy concerns.
A court also said WhatsApp had failed to co-operate in a criminal investigation, and has asked telecoms companies to remove access until Saturday.
Whatsapp is one of the most used applications in Brazil with about 93 million users.
It is reported on TechCrunch website that Brazilians spend almost twice as much time on social media as Americans.
