Click to chat is a free app available on the Play store, which is not just small in size, but also a monster in functionality. The app has been cleverly designed to execute the web procedure mentioned above, on your smartphone. This means that using the ‘Click to Chat‘ app, you can now message any number in the world, on WhatsApp, straight from your Android smartphone.
The app has undergone many iterations over time, getting better with each pass, but the core principles remain the same –
- To make the app as small as possible. The developer has gone for a barebones approach to this app, coding in only what is necessary without unnecessary bloatware. This means that the Click to Chat app has no unrelated content, no extra libraries, and a stunningly small size of 100 KB!!
- Use as few permissions as possible. Only the create_shortcut permission is used, nothing else! (no calls, no storage, no internet).
- No Ads. Yes, you heard correctly. The developer has nor resorted to ads or trackers for generating earnings out of this app. There is a portal where you can contribute voluntarily and support his venture, but other than that, the app itself has no ads, so you can expect fluid performance.
