Why do you love it? I'm honestly curious as to what it does that SMS, Messenger or other messaging apps don't do.

- namenotrequired 13y agoIt's cheaper than SMS for most people, and it's what everyone uses.
- ebrenes 13y agoI get charged a fee per SMS, but I just need an internet connection with WhatsApp. Even when I'm abroad and I switch my SIM card to a different provider contacts can still reach me. I can have group chats in WhatsApp and send video, images and sound. Plus I like how it lets me know if messages have been delivered. It's also fast and doesn't drain my battery mercilessly. The times I've tried Skype on my mobile device I can see my battery meter go down as I type. But mostly I use it because all of the people I generally interact with in real life are on it. All of my family, friends and acquaintances use it.

- berzniz 13y agoIt helps me keep in touch with people I really want to be in touch with: friends, family, co-workers, my soccer group. It just works perfectly without ads, slowness, UI changes. It's simple to use, my mom & dad uses it easily (>60).
