"The Chinese government thanks all WeChat users gratefully for their personal info"
 
WeChat has over 700 million monthly active users, according to a report from BI Intelligence. This is an increase of 29% year-on-year.

BI Intelligence said the Chinese instant messaging service is quickly catching up to WhatsApp, which has 1 billion monthly active user

How many of WeChat's users are in China?
 
WeChat had video calls before WhatsApp. I don't know the quality of it on WhatsApp but compared to Messenger the WeChat video quality is vastly superior.
 
I also think the M4Jam thing had a big influence on the wichat numbers in SA.

it takes a lot for me to say, but I think whatsapp is better than weChat. neither compare to Telegram but you all already knew I was going to say that.

There I was, drinking a beer at a bar when a guy comes over to talk about crossfit. I'd have been relieved if he was a Jehovah's Witness.
