Do you know what messaging app works in China? Yes, you guessed it correctly, WeChat, the Chinese app is the most popular messaging apps by country. The most important fact is that there is a clear increase in WeChat USA users.
The main reason for this increase might be the Chinese people living in the USA. Usually, people believe that WeChat and Whatsapp are just two messaging apps that allow its users to make video calls, voice calls, sharing media or allow them to send messages.
Somehow it is true, but in the case of WeChat, it’s not just a messaging application, it has a lot more features than this whereas WhatsApp can be considered as the best messaging application for smartphones.
What is WeChat App
WeChat offers all the services which are provided by any other ordinary messaging application, but the following 5 features make WeChat much better than its competitors.
