Subject: RE: how to use WhatsApp for a particular purpose
I use Whats App all the time (more than Skype now) to chat with friends and
relatives in Germany. The app is not as popular here in North America, but
is very popular in Germany and I assume other european countries as well as
in South America and some asian countries.
Yes, you can send text messages, voice messages and video messages and you
can easily make audio or video calls with individuals and groups although I
have currently no use for group calls.
What I like is that it integrates nicely with your addressbook/contacts, if
you have somebody's mobile phone number and they use Whats App you can
automatically call them without requesting a Skype name etc.
I also find the app much user friendlier especially since Skype's latest
major update to version 8.
The one advantage Skype still has is that I can call regular phone numbers,
their subscriptions are very inexpensive and I get 60 minutes a months of
calling via my Office 365 subscription.
Regards,
Sieghard

Subject: how to use WhatsApp for a particular purpose
hello,
Somewhat impetuously, I have offered to teach English to various people
around the world using WhatsApp. I have used this app for a while now, but,
Millie to receive messages and reply to them. I have a list of, say, eight
people, with their phone numbers, who wish to avail of my services. Wilde we
would be a group, as such, I am thinking that the calls would be on an
individual basis. am I right in assuming one can use WhatsApp in the same
way that one can use Skype? so, we can chat away as with a normal phone
call? would there be any point in me setting up a group? it might be easier
to keep tabs of the various calls and people, but not sure about that… in
fact, I almost wish I hadn’t volunteered, I don’t really know how to go
about this. can anyone give me some tips as to how to organise this via the
app?
thanks in advance, fingers crossed, Sandy
