We are all practically a generation breeding on smartphones and WhatsApp. Like the letter and postcards fazed out eventually, the scenario seems the same for Short Service Message(SMS).

In fact, the industry analysts themselves started predicting the demise of SMS as early as 2011 with WhatsApp taking over the mantle of communication. Despite the increase in the volume of SMSes in general, it was Instant Messaging that was all the rage.

To go by a few number charts, WhatsApp is practically used in more than 100 nations with more than 100 million daily users across 750 mobile networks! But that's just some fancy numbers, right.
