There was a time when communication between family or friends was limited to mobile voice calls and SMS. Sometimes, communication was also done through missed calls to avoid the cost of money. One misdemeanor means one meaning, two missiles mean different. Several free calls and message apps changed this image.
In the last few years, due to the wide spread of the Internet and smartphones, the communication is not limited to just mobile calls / SMS, but almost all of them have become internet-based. At least in the context of Bangladesh, the cost of using the online messaging service is less costly than sending calls or messages to mobile phones, young generation leaned on messaging apps.
Now anyone can tell the name of the 8-10 messaging service. But which of these is the best for you? To overcome this confusion, discuss the most convenient messaging apps in Bangladesh's context.
Free call and message app
*Facebook messenger
Realizing the popularity of messaging services, Facebook has differentiated the chat features of their sites and continues to be known as messenger with new features. However, in addition to Facebook's latest version of Messenger, you can use this service. You can also control your mobile carrier messages directly from Messenger.
This free call and message app is cross-platform and can be used on almost all devices. Although Facebook is not so focused on the Windows App, you will not get all the messenger features in Windows Phone. However, it can be done with a complete web version and can perform basic tasks. Messengers will also be able to send text messages, send photos, person-to-person audio and video calls as well as group calls and group messaging.
Features include games like messaging, browsing links and sharing files. The biggest advantage of using messenger is its huge community. Because almost everyone has a Facebook or Messenger account, Messenger has become a means of universal communication. So it is more advisable to call it a platform than just a messaging app. Besides, almost all mobile operators in Bangladesh are giving the opportunity to send and receive text messages at low prices / no data costs.
There are two versions of Facebook Messenger. One is the main messenger so that it has all the features. Another is a messenger light, which is also good at slow net connection with less data consumption.
This is also a Facebook-based online messaging app. Facebook bought WhatsApp in 2014 However, WhatsApp is very different from the messenger. Its policies and objectives are different. Those who do not really want to be in the social network, just want a hassle free payment or free call and message app, it is ideal for them to keep in touch with family and close people. You can make a person-to-person audio and video call in WhatsApp.
You can send video, audio and documents from text chats, high resolutions to images. No ads have been launched in WhatsApp so far. You will be automatically added to the numbers in your contacts who use WhatsApp. Includes encryption features for strong privacy.
However, many of those features may look bad that WhatsApp does not save your data on their servers. As a result, messages that fall on a particular device will not automatically be read from other devices, and can not log in to many devices at once. But you can manually backup and restore your chat data. WhatsApp offers these features to give good security.
WhatsApp cross platform. Its user interface is also easy. There is a desktop version of WhatsApp, but to pair it, you have to pair it with your mobile account. Many operators in Bangladesh are offering low cost data packs to run WhatsApp only.
*Imo
As a free call and message app, Emo Bangladesh has gained popularity in the subcontinent, including its simple user interface and low-speed internet running well. By logging in with the phone number, you can make voice and video calls with the people in your contact. As well as text, images, audio and video messages can also be sent using emo.
There are Emo apps for Android, iOS and Windows Phone. Especially for people who do not want such features, but emo is very convenient for those who want video and voice calls on 2G network.
*Skype
The Microsoft-owned messaging app has once ruled for audio and video calls, but its appeal has decreased quite a bit in the multitude of more simple, mobile friendly services. However, Skype is still in the process of professional messaging. Skype has a free call and message app as well as Skype.
Skype is quite a feature-rich. Its Windows Phone, PC, Android, IOS, Linux and Mac version apps are available. An interesting feature of Skype is Instant Translator feature when calling. You can use Skype to open your Microsoft Outlook / Hotmail / Live account or a new Skype account.
Which of the following? In the four free calls and message apps mentioned in this post, I think Facebook Messenger is ahead of all. However, the emo costs less, and the emo is convenient for many. If you have a slow internet, then emo will be good for you. And if there is a better net connectivity, messenger, WhatsApp or Skype, all will work well. There are several messaging apps installed on the phone.
