Free chat, free calls, lightweight, good quality. The best so far!! I'm not surprised, Koreans know how to do messaging!

P.S. LINE seems to be good as well (Japanese equivalent).

I had kakaotalk downloaded for my ipod touch, and then downloaded it again with the same phone number on my android phone. I want to keep the chat data for both devices. How do i do this?

Thank you
