We are in the times of extreme communication. All day we are connected in one way or another by sending and receiving messages from family and friends. Not only that, but we also exchange audio, videos, images, GIFs, emoticons, stickers and much more. WhatsApp is the messaging and connection service between people par excellence on mobile devices. But there are also free alternative applications to the Facebook giant that perform similar functions. Among the good different offers that exist are Telegram, Line or, the app that we are going to tell you about today: Kik Messenger.

These types of programs are usually very similar to each other. Or so they appear at first. But here we are going to tell you what is the difference between Kik Messenger and other apps similar to it.
The communication tool developed by Kik Interactive can be downloaded for free on mobiles that have Android or iOS operating systems. It was born in 2009 and due to its characteristics it is one of the platforms preferred by teenagers and the little ones.

One of the advantages of Kik Messenger is that you can make your username without entering the mobile number from which you are downloading the program. To start the registration you just have to use a name and an email box. This is one of the most important points in regards to the security of the app since you will not have access to any private information of the terminal or of the person who is using it. It also allows you to use it in any country, region or city where you are. It only needs a connection to work correctly.
Another way to connect through Kik Messenger is through a comfortable and simple QR Code. This technology is also a considerable improvement in user safety and will enable quick and risk-free contacts. The tool brings an option to detect QR Codes.

Among other functions that make this messaging service one of the safest is the chance to choose with whom, what type of user, etc. That is, you can filter the people with whom you will communicate.
If you want to manage and create groups in Kik Messenger you can also do it. Exchange all the material you want and the one you like the most with contact groups of up to 50 people who can be identified with hashtag symbols. The app community is one of the fastest growing in recent years and has already surpassed the 200 million people barrier. This success is due in part to the simplicity of the program.
The interface of the platform is very simple, beautiful and accessible. In a matter of minute you will be talking to your family, friends or groups of people who have similar tastes to yours. And as it cannot be otherwise today, it is possible to exchange all kinds of images, audio, icons, stickers and memes.
Kik Messenger presents another highlight and it is the possibility of interacting with bots, that is, robots or artificial intelligence users. This type of technology is usually very useful to get all kinds of content about what interests you the most. It can be current news, entertainment information, weather data, playing fun games, or shopping. All these variants are available in the "Bot Shop".
We are facing a program that is a very good alternative to discover new apps and to connect with people. The debate on how useful the system is or if it is safe or not for children is quite divided according to the opinion of specialists. For some it is very correct and others have found fault with it.

We believe that the important thing to note is that you always have to make a considerate and careful use of any social network or internet service. There will not be a magic app that does not have flaws and it will depend a lot on individual responsibility, or the care that parents take on the little ones, if the experience is to be trusted or not. However, Kik Messenger is presented as one of the best alternatives in this area with very good options and functions to give it a try.
