Log in Sign up free. Go to app Upgrade. To get started, you have to create an account by verifying your mobile number, just as with most of the other such apps. It syncs all your contacts and detects people who are already on your contact list.
You can also login to WeChat by using your Facebook account. It also gives you the option of choosing your username, which your contacts would see when they communicate with you using WeChat.

Voice calling on WeChat is kind of primitive. It's more like a walkie-talkie conversation, rather than a real time voice call.
When you want to talk, you press a button, which records your voice and sends it to your contact when you release the button. We hope that WeChat adds real voice calling soon. Video calling is of high-quality, although the experience could vary depending on your network speed. You can, however, tweak certain things which could make your video calls more reliable.
Through WeChat you can share photos, videos or even files with your friends. WeChat has a huge collection of emoticons. And people seem to love them. The 'Look Around' feature is a nice addition, where you can view your friends and their activities who also have enabled this feature. But after a point, it becomes senseless. Using the 'Moments' feature, you can share a fun moment by tapping on the camera icon, which captures whatever your phone can see at that moment.
This is then available on your timeline for your followers to view.
