If you look at the present time then for most personal chat millennials prefer Whatsapp, FB Messenger, Telegram, and Signal.

Now coming back to our first question how do you design a chat app?
Designing a chat requires consideration of two specific factors.
1. Chat App for Personal Use
If you look at the present available personal use chat apps like Whatsapp, Signal, or we chat has common majority features. Most personal use chat apps make the use of local data storage while professional use chat apps work on cloud storage.
Personal use chat apps do not require multi-device access as it is mostly used by one individual in one smartphone. Personal use chat apps also do not require too advanced features like screen sharing during call access to past messages whenever a user joins a group chat.
2. Chat App for Professional Use

How to develop a chat app
Once you have decided the type of chat app you need to develop, a further step is to decide the exact features and technology stack you need to develop a high-performance chat app.
Let us consider that the chat app we are planning to develop is for personal use. So considering personal use of chat apps like Whatsapp, Telegram, Signal, etc as our reference app lets us dive into the feature deciding process.
How do we decide the feature requirement of the chat app?
By scripting, a process user will have to take to fulfill its needs from a chat app.
· After downloading the app from an app store the first step a new user will take is to register self on the platform
· Once a user is registered the next step they will take is to find their favorite contacts on the platform.
· The contact finding process will require the search as well as phone contact syncing feature in the chat app
· After the user finds their favorite contact they should be able to view their profile with Display Picture, Bio, Name, Last active, and common groups.
· Whenever a user decides to chat with other apps they should have multiple format options like Voice clip, GIF, Image or Video, Emojis, etc.
· The advanced feature most of the chat app offers nowadays are voice and video call with the other user.
· For groups the app also offers group video and voice chat options.
· Recently the chat apps have started integrating UPI payment features within the chat tab.
The above process requires the combination of some basic and advanced features in a chat app, so the backend of the chat app should also be robust and should sustain a high user base at a given time 24x7.
Technology Stack required to develop a Chat App
Hope the above details help you in developing a successful chat app based on your need.
