I’ve now tried that a few times with both U.S.-based and local users, and after each try the app has offered a vague error message about the other person not being eligible to vouch for me.Īfter some further research, I think the problem is my using a Google Voice number. Instead, the app told me to get another WeChat user to verify my existence on their phone. That presented me with CAPTCHA prove-you’re-not-a-robot interface that had me tap the letters in one graphic that matched those in another.īut after going through that, I still couldn’t log in. I tapped through to a “Self-service unblock allowed” screen, tapped its “Read and accept” button. Continue to use this account by tapping OK and applying for an account unblock.”
This wechat account has been confirmed of suspicious registration#
“This WeChat account has been confirmed of suspicious registration in batch or using plugins and is blocked. After creating an account and entering the security code texted to my number, I got this error message: So I downloaded the Android app, plugged in my Google Voice number–as the work number on my business card, it’s what I ordinarily use without a problem on phone-linked messaging systems.īut what worked in WhatsApp and Signal did not in WeChat. Tencent’s messaging app not only connects almost one billion users in real time, it functions as a wallet, a business card, a news feed and a great many other things. WeChat, for those as uninitiated as I once was, is the service AOL Instant Messenger became in an alternate universe. I’m now about to head home, still bereft of a WeChat account. SHANGHAI–It wasn’t until shortly before I left for CES Asia that I realized showing up here without a WeChat account would mark me as some kind of hick.
