Woloks Icon

Communication with your loved ones just got easier with the new Android application that helps you send messages to all your friends, family, enemies, debtors, creditors .......... at a free cost. Woloks (in full Wolokoso is a Luganda slung could mean chatting or jazzing) is the application to enhance your communication. All you need is an internet connection and the message will be delivered on any phone type or any network. Its absolutely free and instant.
This application beats others like; WhatsApp, Viber and GoSMS since it uses your phone number as the sender's ID to any phone. It does not require the receiver to have the application installed on their phone.

The most interesting part of this application is that you can register two (2) phone numbers (IDs) at once with it. For instance; 0772###### and 0752######; just like having two SIM cards in a dual SIM phone.

The unfortunate bit of is that the application isn't integrated into the system: you cannot set it as the default application to send messages, its limited to send only 150 characters and it does not support sending to multiple recipients.
Woloks should be the application to help you cut the costs spent on communication in 2014 and the years to come.
