WeChat (WeChat) is an instant voice messaging software launched by Tencent in 2011. Not only can users quickly send voices, videos, pictures and texts through their mobile phones, but they can also share content they especially like, to WeChat Moments. In addition to providing functions such as an official account, Moments and News Push, WeChat can also add friends and follow a public platform through "Scan", "Search Number", "People Nearby", and "Scan QR Code".
