Q: How is VivaChat different from WhatsApp?

Unlike WhatsApp, VivaChat is a cloud-based messenger with seamless sync. As a result, you can access your messages from several devices at once, including tablets and computers, and share an unlimited number of photos, videos and files (doc, zip, mp3, etc.) of up to 1,5 GB each. And if you don't want to store that data on your device, you can always keep it in the cloud.

Thanks to our multi-data center infrastructure and encryption, VivaChat is faster and way more secure. On top of that, VivaChat is free and will stay free — no ads, no subscription fees, forever.

Our API is open, and we welcome developers to create their own VivaChat apps. We also have a Bot API, a platform for developers that allows anyone to easily build specialized tools for VivaChat.

And that‘s just the tip of the iceberg. Don’t forget to check out this paragraph for even more exclusive stuff.
