Just days after launching a copy of Zoom, Jio has up[dated the UI of JioChat, making it an exact replica of WhatsApp
Mukesh Ambani has been a busy man and so has his Jio Platforms. After receiving a flurry on investments, the company is now busy introducing new ‘Made in India’ solutions to age old digital problems. Barely days after releasing JioMeet, their video conferencing sofware that apes Zoom, the company has done it again. This time with JioChat, which rips-off most of WhatsApp’s UI and UX.
While one may say that JioChat has been present ever since the telecom company was taking baby steps, the messaging app with over 50 million downloads as per the Play Store), was given a design overhaul recently. As a result, one can barely differentiate between JioChat and WhatsApp. Incidentally, Facebook, that owns WhatApp, is also one of the key investors in Jio Platforms.
A quick side by side comparison makes it easy to highlight the similarities between both the chat applications.
