With the convenience and affordability that mobile Instant Messaging has created, we all have that burning need to feel constantly connected and share experiences with our friends. This means we need a diverse space that is not limited to a particular smartphone platform. Something that offers more than just instant messaging, because face to face video calls and live chats should be just as simple.
We also need something that is not a stalker’s haven and lets them know when you are online and/or whether or not you’ve read their messages! And of course, some things can only be described through a gif. Like this >
Say Hello to WeChat!
WeChat is the latest social communications platform that boasts more than 300 million people. It offers more features than its competitors and allows you to customise your experience in great detail. Being able to create boundaries and control who sees what, means you are in charge of your privacy (something celebs wish they had). The personalised pages allow you to share ‘moments’ with various niche groups, keeping you in the cool crowd. Adding someone to your WeChat contact list is as simple as waving for the paparazzi (there really is a ‘shake your phone to add a contact’ feature).
Downloading WeChat is free but because we all like a little extra, we are giving away a brand new Samsung S3 Mini 8GB to make sure nothing gets in between you and your clique.
