Indeed. In some countries, people book doctor appointments using WhatsApp.

SnapChat has always looked like a solution to a "first world problem" to me. Very US and LA/NYC-centric.

Granted, I'm old, but even in rich European countries, I'm not sure it has potential to do well? (Honest question, I really wonder).

Anecdote, but upwards of 80% of people younger than 25 I interact with in Germany use snapchat.
