How to handle cultural differences around WhatsApp in global teams

Our remote work team has people from cultures where WhatsApp is primarily personal and others where it's totally normal for work and we're trying to use it for project coordination but some team members are clearly uncomfortable with mixing it with their personal communication space. I want everyone to feel included but I'm not sure how to navigate these different digital boundaries.
