KIK

Kik-logo-small

KIK – is a superfast instant messenger with an integrated web browser inside the app.

The developers decided to use usernames instead of phone numbers in the app, in such a way protecting the data of the users. So anyone can securely send a message, share a photo or a video, gifs or stickers. For those who seek new ways to express their thoughts there is a sketch feature installed.

This Canadian product is just the right thing for those who are seeking to stay in constant touch with their friends.

Total user base: over 200 mn.
