WhatsApp now available on Windows Phone 8

WhatsApp free messenger application is now available on Windows Phone 8.

WhatsApp worked closely with Nokia to produce the Windows Phone 8-styled app, following its success on Android, iOS and Windows Phone 7.5.

WhatsApp allows you to message your friends also using the app as you would via normal SMS. The benefit is it uses data rather than your free SMS message allowance.

When you install the app, it will scan your phonebook to find contacts who are already using WhatsApp. When you message any of those contacts, it will use an available data connection to send the message.

You can send just plain text, photos, audio and video too, making it comparable to BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) but cross-platform.

More than 100 million people worldwide are using WhatsApp to communicate for free.

WhatsApp is free to download and use for the first year, costing $0.99 a year thereafter.
