The popularity of WeChat

WeChat, known as Weixin in china, is a mobile phone text and voice messaging communication service which is developed by Tencent. Users can access it across a variety of platforms including Android, iPhone, BlackBerry, Windows Phone, and Symbian. In less than two years，WeChat has registered 200 million users and its overseas markets is rising rapidly. Up to now WeChat is already one of most popular chat applications which are used in mobile phones.

Undoubtedly, WeChat is definitely a wonderful invention that changed the world. Why does WeChat become so popular in such a short time? As far as I am concerned, it is so easy to use WeChat. You can register WeChat with your phone number, and add your friends Number in your contact list, then you can start your conversation by tapping the voice button. It's using just like a interphone. In the second place, WeChat is powerful. It can send messages of voice, video, photo and text. Various informations could be sent to your friends, from which receivers could enjoy the best pleasure. In the third place, WeChat is supported on Wi-Fi, 2G, 3G, and 4G data networks, by which you can chat with your family or friends in a brand new way by using your phone no matter when and where. But you don't need worry other things, such as basic fees.

As we can see, WeChat is becoming one of the first services of technology from China to tap an international customer base and to entertain more users outside the home country than domestically and it has 700 million registered users all over the world up to now. It is definitely a wonderful invention that changed our life style.

However, as a matter of fact, the potential dangers of WeChat to the users could not be ignored. First, so many people immerse themselves in Wechat and waste a lot of time. In addition, some functions of the Wechat may lead to crimes. Therefore, I insist that we should make the best use of it, but we shouldn’t spare too much time on it. Only in this way, can we enjoy it better.
