Today we will show you how to send and receive messages on computers using the SMS messaging app, two of the most popular chat apps, WhatsApp and WeChat. As we have mentioned at the first beginning of this article, most people only know how to send and receive text messages on their mobile phones using the default messaging apps or instant messengers other than sending and receiving messages on their computers.

Now many people know who to do these things on a phone, but not a computer. Now you can browse the web, watch movies, listen to music, read books, go shopping, send and receive money, chat with family and friends and many more, all on your mobile phone. Our mobile phones can give us PC-like experience plus the mobility and freedom other than being cooped up, tethered to an office or a desktop computer. In fact, people spend more and more time on their cell phones than computers now. The smartphone apps look and act just like they would on a typical PC nowadays.

With the development of mobile and cloud computing technology, we can now do most PC things using smartphones in our pocket.
