I have lived in the African region for most of my years and I can say that this chatting app is pretty popular over here. Is Whatsapp chat popular in your area?
Yes, I think WhatsApp is popular around. We don't need to remember the contact phone numbers and text as much as we want without spending a penny as long as we get the network connection. Compared to the seamless transition to Android and iOS, iMessege seems stingy and just worked on the Apple devices. And so far, no ads display on WhatsApp.
But it sometimes drives me crazy due to the workgroup chats. Back then, I can just ignore the phone calls and texts when I was off and pretended I did not look at my phone. If you are saying something like this now, no one believes in your excuse and you have to work at home till 1 p.m And I was told that WhatsApp accounts can be hacked using voicemail.
Technology is really a double-edged sword.
