Can we start a WeChat Faq? Can someone who actually knows answers provide some?
My first question, and I imagine it's frequently asked, is:
1. WHAT THE? HOW THE? WHO EVEN?! HOW DOES THIS THING WORK?I have today installed the English language version. First up was ten minutes of steady cursing. I have signed up for WeChat before, I realise now, and this sign up today was an official second signing. WeChat thus insisted I go through some unbanning process. My account had been "protected" due to long disuse. This is fine, of course. But what made it tooth grindingly irritating was the program's insistence on rendering everything from that point on in Chinese....
Somehow I have made it through to the other side of the looking glass. The app is now presenting in English, I have set a password, I am logged in. I am mystified.
2. What is my WeChat ID? Do I even have one? The app says it is not set.
3. How should I arrange to be discovered by others? What settings to set? What to avoid? Why even try anymore?
