Turkey’s secure life and communication platform BiP introduces its new feature, allowing users to convey their group chats easily from other applications. Reaching out to 80 million users globally, BiP sustains innovative investments and introduces group chat import enabling users to move their existing group and individual chatsincluding videos and photographs automatically at once. Unlike other applications, users are not obliged to manually add every fellow user one by one as BiP handles the import directly by adding all participants in.
Commenting on the most recent feature of BiP Burak Akıncı, CEO of BiP, said: “Digitization is becoming a norm rapidly. A messaging application is not only a messaging application anymore but more of a living ecosystem via we communicate, work and trade. Users need to feel safe and secure in that ecosystem. In an era where we are under continuous cyber-crime threats as businesses and individuals, consumers’ protection and consent are critical. Data ethics and security has paramount importance for us. A protected and seamless migration experience is a symbol for our dedication in a thorough and fulfilled CX.”
MALAYSIA IS A STRATEGIC MARKET
Underlining the importance of the Malaysian market, Akıncı said: “Exceptional relations between our countries have been a great motivation for us from the day one. In just a couple of months we’ve reached more than 1 million downloads with very high rates of like scores in various platforms. We also pursue productive collaborations with operators and local content providers in the Malaysian market. We’ll gratefully continue to invest in innovative and localized solutions to make Malaysians’ everyday lives and digital interactions easier and safer.”
MALAYSIAN USERS FAVOR GROUP CALLS AND MESSAGING
Messaging and group video calls up to 10 people with HD quality are the most popular features for Malaysian users. The messaging traffic per user in March becomes 3 times of the value in January for Malaysian users. BiP’s awarded instant translation and secret messaging are other significant features that are highly preferred by Malaysian consumers. BiP instantly translates written words and phrases in 106 languages, including Malay. BiP has received the ‘Most Innovative Mobile App’ award at 2020 Global Mobile Awards under ‘Connected Consumer Category’ with this built-in real-time translation feature.
Secret chat is another highly preferred feature in the Malaysian market as it enables users to make the chats disappear from the chat screen with the period they determine. Secret chat creates a solid sense of security and privacy for its users, with no data backed up by BIP or decrypted.
