Send free SMS messages with this WhatsApp-style app
Hike Sticker Chart is a messaging app for Android that lets you chat for free with any other user of the service. Hike Sticker Chart is very similar to applications such as WhatsApp or Line.
What does Hike Sticker Chat do?
Hike Sticker Chart allows you to save the cost of sending SMS by exchanging free messages with anyone else who has the app installed, regardless of what smartphone platform they are using. Hike Sticker Chart can even send SMS messages for free to someone, though this service only works in India at present.
Besides just chatting via instant messaging, you can attach images, video, audio and voice messages to your chats with Hike Sticker Chart. There’s also an option for sharing your location with the person you’re chatting too. Hike Sticker Chart includes a group chatting feature too.
It includes a wide selection of fun emoticons that you can add to your chats, which are grouped into three different types of characters. There’s something for everyone in there.
For the privacy conscious, Hike Sticker Chart also has a handy “Hidden Mode” which allows you to hide chats that you want to keep private and password protect them.
How easy is Hike Sticker Chat to use?
The setup process for Hike Sticker Chart is very similar to that of WhatsApp or Viber. You need to enter your phone number and you’ll be sent an activation code via SMS. Enter this into the field provided and you’re away.
You can easily view all your friends on Hike Sticker Chart by tapping the contacts button. This will pull up a list of people from your phone contacts book who have Hike Sticker Chart, as well as allowing you to invite friends who don’t yet have the app.
Is Hike Sticker Chat better than WhatsApp?
Ultimately, Hike Sticker Chart is very similar to WhatsApp. It shares almost all of the same features, though I would say WhatsApp is a bit more polished. Although the user interface of Hike Sticker Chart looks great, it doesn’t have the customization options of WhatsApp, which allows you to change the background image of the chat window. WhatsApp has a more varied range of emoticons, too.
Hike Sticker Chart is a fast and easy way to chat for free with your buddies on your phone. Whether you choose Hike Sticker Chart over WhatsApp, LINE, Viber and the rest will depend ultimately on which service most of your friends are using.
It’s getting better all the time
Significant improvements have been made to Hike’s messaging, making it faster on GPRS and 2G networks.
Hike Sticker Chart is also continuing to be streamlined to make it less resource intensive, allowing better performance on low-end Android devices.
