Disa: unified messaging of WhatsApp and SMS

Disa wants to be the center of mobile communications services for different Android devices. Years ago, we had to resort to multiprotocol messaging client for desktop systems to participate in multiple messaging services when we had user account.


Now it is likely that our messaging communications have led the mobile devices, and to the many services that can participate, and to avoid having to use multiple applications and go crazy to choose one in which we want to respond to a new message received or send one of ours, Disa is a current solution for Android devices and just launched its public Beta after passing through its Alpha phase and its private Beta.

Disa has integrated SMS messaging through official support and plugin to Facebook, but also allows the use of third-party plugins to expand the possibilities. Researching it can find the availability or development of third party plugins for services as WhatsApp, Telegram, GroupMe, Hike, Line, etc. Disa also is developing other official plugins for other messaging services to be launched in the coming months.


Best of all is that all discussions of the various services will be under the same application, which will impact positively on the battery life of mobile devices having fewer open applications, among other benefits. Use of Material Design or support for other formats beyond text messages are other qualities of this promising mobile application.

Among other features, we will see the configuration options that allows us to modify some parameters, such as Back Press, notifications, Fast Service Switch, the latter offers the possibility to change the service using a unified chat and text messaging WhatsApp.


Besides all this, we can activate emojis or stickers, and more. The services section (WhatsApp or SMS) allows us to modify colors of each for easy identification, and best of all, we can use different colors for incoming and outgoing messages, making our conversation fun and friendly.

Before unified messaging applications must check the APN Operator for the SMS service, and verification of WhatsApp, but not have to worry as Disa automatically detects the APN, so it saves us time and work, but we modify it manually.
To verify the number of WhatsApp we are using we must indicate the country and our number, then enter the verification method call or SMS. After completing this process, we can chat in comfort with our friends in WhatsApp or SMS messages.
