But back then, I had heard about this app as more notorious as a troublemaker than good reputations: Due to the function of this app, the users seem to be obsessed to respond quickly when they receive messages. I hear that many users are stressed out by getting occupied with communication by this app, and there are users who compel their friends to reply because they feel that they are disliked if the reply is late. -But that's another story for today.
There were even murder cases prologued by communication with this app.
-At the same time, it's not proper to conclude that this is a problem of users, though. I've also heard that divulging of address book information has been a major problem. Actually, one of my relatives who has already had a smartphone used this app once, but messages came from unrelated people, and felt frightened and stopped using this app. Once there was aplausible rumorthat this app was spread by spies and whole contents of address book of the cell phone is stolen if we use this app
-I read on a business magazine.
This situation inspired to develop this app
, then I'd like to question their principle and basic philosophy
after there are such major problems. Anyway...
Back then, there were a few members of our band who didn't have a smartphone yet, including me. So networking tree plan was brought to a halt once. But the constitution of our band changed this year, and networking tree by this free communication app has been brought up again. Besides, one of the members brought me information that this app can be used for conventional cell phone, too. I feel sorry if I'm the only one who don't use this free communication app yet and the leader is having extra labor to send me necessary messages. Then, I wonder: ・Phone calls and texting by this app itself could be free, but what about packet communication fee? Extra packet communication fee would be required, but even so, is it cheaper than usual phone-calls and texting?
・If I use this free call app, I intend to limit the purpose of use and members I contact with from the beginning
like what I thinkabout the worldwide social networking service. Is it possible? As long as both answers are "Yes", I wouldn't mind using this app so that I can join the networking tree only among our band members. At the same time... I heard that before the rise of consumption tax is better to buy a new smartphone. So now I'm thinking that I don't mind using a smartphone even just once...
