If you start with Chaton, enter your phone number and get a confirmation code by SMS. With this code you can log in and use the service. The layout of the app will instantly familiar if you've used previous messaging services. Left is a tab with friends who use the app, also houses a tabbed chats that you perform with others and are also tabs for your personal page and the settings. The latter two have a little more attention than, for example WhatsApp.
Chaton is under version 1.5.2 in the App Store, but is really only published this week. The version number is probably based on Chaton on other platforms.
On 'My Page' you can save a profile setting, your status in up to 40 characters specify. Also, your birthday by giving people get pushed out of your friends if they want. You can also connect to Facebook Chaton - though the benefits do not appear immediately - and you'll see below in a separate box that friends say about you. Comments that you can do anything with it, you can then remove. It all makes sense to some extent, because all Chaton users have an approachable profile page. If you 'interactions Ranking' button on your own page, you can immediately call a friend and email, you can write a message on those and see how many messages you've sent and how he got you. With the asterisk add someone as a favorite.
The Settings page is a bit more extensive than comparable apps (such as next WhatsApp also the Dutch eBuddy XMS from grace and lost touch / Ping Chat ). You can change the look of the background and the bubbles change the text size, whether you push messages to the birthdays of others and whether your phone is visible to all Chaton users you based on their contacts list to add.
As for the chat service itself does a few things well and some things wrong. With an arrow next to the username of the other, you can invite more friends in conversation and straight to his chat profile. Right there with the briefcase, you easily see all the media exchanged between each other. You can bombard each other because in many media types: photos, videos, voice recordings, contacts, calendar entries, and even your location on the ground in the app drawings. Unfortunately it is an incredibly clumsy standard point at Chaton wrong. The app does not take into account the Dutch language and therefore very special break words down. In particular, the word, but it may be that in the first sentence "bijzo 'and second' more 'is. That sloppiness, simply but soon to be remedied. It ensures that at least Chaton not yet ready for the baton of WhatsApp to take over - if it ever would happen.
