WhatsApp is really big in some European countries, especially Spain. But apps provide a non-exclusive messaging market, so I suspect people can fairly easily switch to alternatives.

WhatsApp is huge here as well, but many people started using LINE after the 1 dollar scare (99% of users here literally can't pay because of the lack of international credit cards).
