The only time i've ever used that shyt is when I was talking to a chick who phone got turned off. Why not just use regular text/imessage?

Because the rest of the world doesn't exclusively use iphones, and many people don't know they don't have international texting til the bill shows up.

Whatsapp has 1.5 Billion people using it breh.

WhatsApp is one of the only messagging apps where the U.S. Govt cannot remotely access your messages.

WhatsApp's call and video quality is impeccable


The only problem I have had is that occassionally, I don't receive some of my calls until I see the missed call notification or open the app and see a missed call.

Regular text messages, cost money and got a text limit.

Whatsapp allows you to write entire novels once you are connected to the Internet/wifi or use data. That alone is worth the price of admission.

Plus you can have group conversations and even make phonecalls on it.

Also, for scary folk like myself who don't like answering calls from strange numbers, I can let it ring out, put strange number in my contact, boot up WhatsApp and if they have an account, see they profile/picture/status and possibly see who they are.

That's the only downside about it though, shyt has some security flaws that can bite you if you aren't careful.

My mother uses it to send me random Obama videos and church quotes.

I get every last god damned one

Does anyone?

 

[shutterguy]

Ive heard people who use it for that complain at times that they don’t get text messages people send to them.

Anyone use it and ever have that problem?

Old thread and chiming in here, I used to use Textra, be missing chunks of messages every now and again. Got put on to What's App, more secure, reliable (as long as you have internet). No more missed texts.

Between FB messenger, snap, IG, and standard text I never understood the point of Kik or WhatsApp unless you were a kid with no cell service or something

 

[you're NOT "n!ggas"]

Having never left the country I never really saw the value in whatsapp but now that I'm starting this business? that bytch is clutch
