Today almost everybody from young to old, use Whats App to communicate and
post greetings, important and routine messages to friends, relatives and
others. Lovers love Whats App, it’s a dream come true for them to remain in
touch anywhere, everywhere and any time of the day. Everyone is having fun and a
great time, thanks to Whats App! But very few people know about who and when
Whats App was created.
Whats App messenger is a cross
platform messaging app which allows you to exchange messages without having to
pay for SMS. Whats App was founded in 2009 by Jan Koum and Brian Acton. And the
best part is they spent a nil amount on marketing it. Such was the popularity
of this all-encompassing messaging tool, Whats App, that it was acquired by
Facebook for $19 billion. And you will be surprised to note that the only way
in which Whats App makes money is by charging a small annual subscription fee
from users.
It offers messaging, group chat
and sending of photos, audio and videos messages. Nearly 30 billion messages
get sent and received on Whats App daily (as on January 2015). The average
amount of time spent by users on Whats App on a weekly basis is 195 minutes.
There are over 800 million active users. And over 700 million pictures get
shared on Whats App daily. 72 per cent users check Whats App every day. Whats
App is responsible for 27 per cent of selfies on the internet. Over 200 million
voice notes get shared on Whats App every day.
Whats App is available for
iPhone, Blackberry, Android, Windows Phone and Nokia, and these phones can all
message each other. Since Whats App Messenger uses the same internet data plan
that you use for email and web browsing, there is no cost to message and you
can stay in touch with every one free of cost. India has the largest number of
active users on Whats App, which amounts around 10 per cent of users all over
the world.
