I use face time a lot. I find it more reliable, and the sound quality is superior to whatsapp or facebook messenger. Cheers, Cris I never tried to compare the data usage to know if it uses more or less data.

A friend of mine from Germany is visiting the U.S. for a few weeks and has brought her iPhone with her. She does not have a data plan for the States, and my phone plan does not allow me to phone a German mobile phone at a low cost. We are considering FaceTime or WhatsApp as a way to keep in touch. I am rather wary of WhatsApp since I have heard reports that its address book sharing can introduce malware into the iPhone. I have no idea if these reports are credible. Does anyone have any experience with comparing FaceTime and WhatsApp in a scenario such as the one I have described? Note that we are not interested in exchanging any video component, just voice data. Thank you for all help. Craig -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
