WhatsApp only comes as an app, which can be downloaded for free from the KaiStore.

WhatsApp is primarily used for messaging and making calls. You can also send pictures, videos, files, and share your location with friends and family through the app.

Because it uses an internet connection rather than a traditional phone service, it’s very popular with people who have friends and families in other countries. There are no additional international calling or messaging fees. However, data charges will apply if you’re using mobile internet. Video calls use more data than phone calls. If you plan to use WhatsApp for any of these things, it’s best to be connected to Wi-Fi.

Another popular feature on WhatsApp is group messaging. You can message up to 256 people at one time! That means you can keep all of your friends and family up to date without having to message each one individually. Simply click the “new group” icon, search and click for the names of the people you wish to include, and then name the group.
