The future of messaging

WhatsApp is a program used for communicating with contacts. It supports voice notes, images, videos, documents, and more. It’s a great way to avoid pesky prices for text messaging.

Free communication

WhatsApp kicks text messaging to the curve and embraces communication through the Internet.

WhatsApp provides a simple platform for talking to friends when there’s a distance between you and them. When you don’t have your cell phone handy, the version for Windows is a great replacement. It does require your phone to be connected to the Internet but, other than that, it works like a charm.

The app is packed with a ton of features. Some alternatives, like LINE, have plenty in common. Sending images, voice notes, and documents are just a few. However, WhatsApp bolsters the list by adding things like location sharing, encrypted messages, video calls, and business profiles.

Getting started with the program is easy. All you have to do is open the app on your phone, and point it at a QR code provided by the Windows version. That's it. You´re ready to start using one of the best communication apps.

Something slightly frustrating, is that other competitors get one thing right. Telegram, for example, doesn’t force you to keep your phone connected. So, when your phone runs out of battery or gets lost, you´re really out of luck with WhatsApp. This program still finds a way to top the charts as one of the most downloaded apps in the world.

Where can you run this program?

It can run on Windows 7 and later. It is also available for Android, iPhone, and Mac.

Is there a better alternative?

No. WhatsApp has everything you need. Telegram, though, provides better security options.

Our take

WhatsApp is simply fantastic. It offers everything you need to keep in touch with your friends and loved ones.

Should you download it?

Yes. It’s lightweight, easy to use, and works very well. You want to download it if you need a free way to communicate with anyone in the world.
