WeChat and FHM: Helping men make the most out of mobile

What turns women on? Is it a keen sense of style? A good head on one’s shoulders? 

Perhaps the perfect blend of charm and wit… 

When it comes to preference, most ladies are into the kind of gentlemen who can talk about something new and interesting. And living in the modern times grants men access to breakthroughs that help them look suave and irresistibly dashing. This is where WeChat comes in. With features that bring socializing to the next level, WeChat helps the modern male adapt to the latest trends while giving a platform that makes mobile conversations both easy and fun.

With things going mobile, keeping women interested is now just a swipe away. Impress your woman with a sticker or two or show her the many features that make WeChat the fastest growing social mobile app in the country. Instead of just sending a plain text, use WeChat’s Video Call feature and flash a winning smile. WeChat also has Moments, a feature that lets people share updates on what’s new, what’s hip, and what’s going on in their lives.

For networking purposes, WeChat’s Friend Radar gives an easy one-swipe access to knowing who of the ladies around your area is up for a lovely chat. Speaking of chats, WeChat also has a Group Chat feature that lets people converse with their peers through mobile means.
