WeChat Releases Animated Sticker Support For Windows Phones

While some of the messaging and calling applications continue to withhold app or feature support from the Windows Phone users, some other applications have embraced the Microsoft operating system with open hands. WeChat is one of these applications and they have released a number of features that are built into the application. These features are either disabled by default or are completely separate downloads on other platforms. Some of the notable holiday features made their debut in the last few weeks on iOS, Windows Phone, and the Android operating system. This was confirmed after contacting the Windows support number.

While the WeChat games and voice calls features remain missing from the platform, the iOS and Android OS got voice calling back in October and November months. The voice messages are part of the app’s feature set and other features have been released with the recent update that keeps the Windows Phone largely on par with the versions found on other two important mobile platforms. One of these important features is the ability to download a number of animated stickers from the Sticker shop. Users who are downloading the latest updates can also look forward to saving their favorite clippings from the chats or Moments as well as the capability to link email addresses for easy login and retrieval of the password.

The latter two additions may seem minor to the users, but they add up to a bigger picture that represents support for the Windows Phone that is not found in app makers like Tango, or LINE. Tango is yet to release a Windows Phone 8 version of the app that builds on the outdated Windows Phone 7 version. LINE does allow the use of stickers that are downloaded via other platforms on Windows Phone, but it does not have its own Sticker Shop, so the promotional stickers from messages cannot be obtained even though the messages themselves are received.

If you wish to know more on the animated sticker support for Windows phones from WeChat and other app manufacturers, you can contact the Windows support number. The Windows support technician will be able to provide you with more details on the animated stickers and the Sticker Shop. Let us hope that the other app makers will follow WeChat and will release more and more apps that can work in the Windows Phone operating system.
