Samsung launches its own messenger



    Now there are (and, moreover, feeling very good) several types of Internet messengers, including clients for popular social networks. In general, there is simply no problem finding an appropriate Internet messenger. And the need for new types of instant messengers also seems to be gone. But Samsung decided to try releasing its own instant messaging platform. The service was called ChatON, and according to the developers, it will be able to work on any operating system, including the OS for mobile phones.

    Yes, and on a regular phone, and not on a smartphone or communicator, this service will also be launched. In addition to tête-à-tête messaging, the service allows you to communicate, so to speak, collectively, that is, in groups. You can exchange not only text messages, but also media files, including pictures, videos and more. The developers consider the main bun for the user to be the cross-platform service. It will be possible to work with ChatON on mobile devices, and on PCs, and on ordinary phones, as mentioned above. ChatOn will be installed on all new Samsung devices shipped to stores.

    The service is tied to the domain of the same name chaton.com, which Samsung recently bought for $ 17 thousand (the previous owner of the domain was probably most pleased with the appearance of the service with such a good name). It is worth mentioning that the service will be not only cross-platform, but also multilingual, it runs immediately in 120 countries, in 62 languages. ChatON will begin to work in early September this year.

    According to the leadership of Samsung, the new service will allow the company and its products to compete with market monsters such as Apple or Google. The cross-platform service will allow customers of the company, owners of Samsung gadgets, to freely communicate with each other, regardless of which device and which operating system a colleague has.
