Hike Messenger joins the long list of the opponents that have appeared as alternatives to the popular and powerful WhatsApp. The list is composing of applications such as Viber, Line, Tango, Joyn and Spotbros, among others. Currently the best positioned as competition for WhatsApp is LINE, which has achieved what others failed in the past.
With Hike Messenger we can create groups, as in most messaging programs, but with the novelty of being able to mix with and without a contact on Hike Messenger installed. These users will receive SMS messages. When checking in, we only need our phone number because it does not use any pin or username, so the record is clear for the person. No lack of emoticons and the ability to save messages when they have no connection, which will be sent to retrieve it.
In addition to the options already mentioned, the application also has stickers to accompany the messages, themes for chats and ability to send SMS messages to friends who are not connected.
To register at Hike Messenger is quite similar to WhatsApp. We introduce our phone number and get a code, this part is virtually automatic, and we just have to add our phone number and change the prefix of our country. After all this we add our name and our profile photo, to finish in the last step when the contacts already in Hike Messenger are added.
Another option that gives us Hike Messenger is to be able to send free messages to contacts that do not yet have, with this we get as a kind of currency within the application so that we can then make calls within the application. Finally, another option that gives us is the power sharing with states directly from the Hike networks to Facebook and Twitter.
The Hike Messenger experience is very nice, with a good design. It is also very easy to share images, audio, video, location and contacts in the conversation. Others of the points that are important with the text are the spam.
Fortunately, Hike Messengers allows blocking a person if it is desired. Moreover, points that can be improved, since this application is to be free from many times to have errors, as sometimes you send a chat room but the recipient does not arrive. Another option to improve is to see how many applications have it own style and the desktop application or a web service where we can also use it on the computer.
The Hike Messenger is to become the perfect application to introduce the new developers who come stomping from India. And so what we can do with this app which reached number 1 app store in India, won more than 10 million downloads in Google Play. In fact, in four months already it has 15 million users.
So if you are from the users that are looking for alternatives to the main messaging services. This option is for you.
