Winkr is a free messaging app.
Beautiful, simple, fast and reliable.

But it’s much more than that.
Winkr goes far beyond other popular « WhatsApp-like » messengers because we focus on 2 main objectives:

► I. BECOMING THE BEST CONNECTING TOOL TO STAY IN TOUCH WITH FRIENDS:
No gadgets on Winkr, no « stickers » or costly virtual emojis!
We tried to get rid of the unnecessary to focus on features you love to use and you TRULY need to stay in touch with friends:
・Chat messaging service: simple and effective.
・Checkins: keep your friends in the loop of where you are/what you’re doing, publish your checkins seamlessly on Foursquare, Facebook or Twitter directly from Winkr!
・Nearby friends: if one of your friends is nearby, Winkr will notify you. Don’t miss again an opportunity to meet your friends.
・Twitter: read latest friends tweets right from the app.

► II. BECOMING THE BEST CONNECTING TOOL TO MEET NEW INTERESTING PEOPLE AND GROW YOUR NETWORK:
Winkr is not another useless social network. Our aim is to become the first smart messaging app « open to others ».
Subscribe to circles that match your interests and meet new qualitative people.
Don’t worry about being bothered by undesirable people: Winkr connects you with persons only and only if the interest is mutual.

Winkr is 100% free, for unlimited time, with no advertising.
Selling ads or introducing subscription fees is not in our plans.

You care about your privacy, so do we:
All features can be easily disabled in the app’ settings: you choose what you want to activate or not, it’s fine for us!

WHY SWITCH TO WINKR?
***********************************

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MESSENGER OF THE MARKET: Why a messenger app should be that ugly? Winkr has been beautifully designed for the pleasure of everyone.

SUPERFAST: Far more faster than SMS, your messages are delivered in quasi real-time over Wi-Fi/3G/4G network.

TALK: Winkr is like a real conversation: you know when your messages are sent successfully, delivered and read. This makes your conversations come to life.

CLOUD STORAGE: Never lose your data! Free unlimited cloud storage for all your Winkr messages and media.
That means that you can access your messages from multiple devices!

OFFLINE MESSAGES: Push notifications guarantee that you never miss a message.
Even if you turn off your iPhone, you’ll retrieve your missing messages during the next application use.

NO NEED TO SHARE YOUR PHONE NUMBER: Keep your phone number for you!
Winkr is based on username: you’re in complete control of who you talk to on Winkr.

100% FREE, NO ADD, NO HIDDEN COST, NO INTERNATIONAL CHARGES:
Once you and your friends download the application, you can use it to chat as much as you want. Send a million messages a day to your friends for free! Winkr uses your Wi-Fi/3G/4G internet connection (when available) to message with friends and family.
Switch from SMS to Winkr to exchange messages/pictures with your contacts.

CHECKINS: publish your checkins right from the app on Foursquare, Facebook and Twitter at the same time.

NEARBY FRIENDS: be notified when one of your friends is nearby.

TWITTER: read your contacts’ latest tweets from the app

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST: guys, we’re not owned by Facebook. That’s quite a thing, isn’t it :)
