Everybody I know has the app installed. Not all of my acquaintances have Skype or Facebook, but everybody has Whatsapp. It's epidemic.

Isn't it "Line" in Japan? Europeans seem to like "WhatsApp".

Right, Whatsapp isn't of any relevance in Japan or Korea, it's more of a Philippine, Indonesian thing. Not sure about Europeans, they seem content with SMS.

Line has 400million. I like Line, it's good that it's the default in Japan, every smartphone user I know here has it so group messages are very handy.
