I thank @fantvwiki for organizing this great contest where we can all share our ideas on our best mobile application.

We have a whole lot of android mobile application, but to my point of view, WhatsApp happens to be the best and my preferred application. Keep on reading and I will explain to you what WhatsApp is and why it is my preferred mobile application.

There is a high possibility most of us have heard of WhatsApp before even if we have not used it. WhatsApp is the beloved messaging application used in many countries for texting. I will be explaining to you what WhatsApp is and it’s features.

WHAT IS WHATSAPP

WhatsApp is a free messaging mobile application which is available on google play store for android phones. This mobile application allows for messaging to be sent to user one on one or in groups. Isn’t this awesome? Others might say it works the same SMS texting but that is not true.WhatsApp chat goes over the network while our normal SMS texting goes through our phone’s providers.

Apart from talking about the part of WhatsApp that deals with texting/chatting, WhatsApp has some features for modern messaging application which includes the sharing of location, sending of photos, search and sending of gifs. Another amazing things we can do is video calls, voice calls and the recording of voice messages.

WHATSAPP CHAT BASICS

The Mic 🎙

The Mic 🎙icon features allows a user to send voice note recordings.

At the top of the WhatsApp application is found the Phone📞 icon for making voice call with other users or a group and the Camera icon for making videos calls.

The Chat tap existing on the screen contains all chats starting from the recent activity in that order.
Sliding from the right to left of a chat Archive the chat if you no longer need it.

You can tap on More to see other handful of options. When swiping from left to right of a chat, you will find a Pin to keep the chat at the top of your chats list.

The Status tab helps a user add a temporary text or photo status to share with other contacts and you can see status of other contacts that have shared.

Settings tap come with a lot of options. The account session helps make WhatsApp safe and secured and also link other devices by the use of WhatsApp web

One important aspect we should never forget of WhatsApp is it been end-to-end encrypted. Without this, WhatsApp is not fully defined. This end-to-end encrypted means when messages are sent using the WhatsApp service, the messages are only readable by the recipient only. This is one of the main reasons why I really like WhatsApp.

Thank you for reading.
