THERE ARE MANY APPS WE USE DUE TO THEIR RESPECTIVE USAGE BUT WHATSAPP MESSAGING APP IS THE ONE THAT I FANCY THE MOST. IT IS A CHILD'S PLAY TO OPERATE IT AS THE USER INTERFACE IS WELL DEFINED AND LUCID (EASILY UNDERSTANDABLE). ONE OF THE MOST STRIKING FEATURE IS THE MAKE VOICE OR VIDEO CALLS TO ANYONE ACROSS THE WORLD AS QUICK AS A FLASH. MOREOVER, YOU CAN UPDATE YOUR CONTACTS ABOUT YOUR STATUS VIA TEXT OR PHOTOGRAPHS, WHICH IS A SUPERB OPTION AS WELL.
