I have a friend in South Africa and we speak a lot via What's app. I have had no problems. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Craig Werner" <[email protected]>

Subject: WhatsApp or FaceTime: Keeping up with a Friend from Germany


Hello, everyone.

A friend of mine from Germany is visiting the U.S. for a few weeks and
has brought her iPhone with her.  She does not have a data plan for
the States, and my phone plan does not allow me to phone a German
mobile phone at a low cost.  We are considering FaceTime or WhatsApp
as a way to keep in touch.  I am rather wary of WhatsApp since I have
heard reports that its address book sharing can introduce malware into
the iPhone.  I have no idea if these reports are credible.  Does
anyone have any experience with comparing FaceTime and WhatsApp in a
scenario such as the one I have described?  Note that we are not
interested in exchanging any video component, just voice data.

Thank you for all help.

Craig
