What is WeChat?

WeChat is a messaging and calling app primarily used in China. It lets you connect with friends and family worldwide and much more.

With WeChat, you can send text messages, make voice and video calls, share photos and videos, play games, and even make in-app purchases.

WeChat has a built-in payment service that lets you pay for goods and services using your phone. You can use it to book taxis, order food, buy movie tickets, and more.

WeChat is free on Android, iOS, Windows Phone, and BlackBerry. But it’s invite-only, meaning a current WeChat user has to accept you into the app.
