You Were Told to Design Software, But You Created Tiktok?!

226: Section 226“Didn’t you guys notice what this mini-program is?”

“Anyway, WeChat updates are usually quite exaggerated; we’ll know tomorrow after a good night’s sleep.”

Under the anticipation of countless people, time quickly arrived at the next day.

(PS: The WeChat chapter is about to be finished.)

Chapter 156: The Terror of Mini-Programs, the Potential of Red Envelopes!

The next day, in a university dormitory in Modu.

“This time, it’s actually a mandatory update!”

Looking at the WeChat update notification on his phone, the third brother was a little surprised.

“You know,”

“The last time WeChat launched the Huabei update, it wasn’t even a mandatory update.”

“This time, these Red Envelope and mini-program features are actually unusable without updating.”

Originally, the third brother thought that this update would be like the last one, where updating or not wouldn’t affect the normal use of WeChat.

But when the update time arrived, the message that popped up after he clicked on WeChat directly surprised him.

And listening to the third brother’s words, the eldest brother next to him couldn’t help but scratch his head.

“Logically speaking,”

“These two features shouldn’t be comparable to the previous Huabei and spare money, right?”

“Especially this Red Envelope sending feature.”

“WeChat already has a transfer function, and adding a Red Envelope feature does seem a bit redundant.”

The third brother continued, “No matter what, let’s update first.”

“After all, you can’t use it without updating.”

Finally, the few people in the dormitory began updating WeChat.

Because the third brother was the fastest, he finished updating WeChat first.

He immediately clicked into WeChat, wanting to see what this so-called mini-program was.

And just as he entered the WeChat homepage, a line of small reminder text appeared before him.

“Swipe down to enter the mini-program interface.”

Looking at this line of text, the third brother scratched his head, then swiped down.

The next second, a brand new mini-program interface appeared before him.

Because there were no recently used mini-programs, what appeared before the third brother at this moment were the few larger mini-programs currently available in the mini-program feature.

Looking at the interface before him, the third brother was instantly stunned.

Because he actually saw the names of Douyin and Pinduoduo on it!

“No way.”

“Is this so-called mini-program just putting some other software onto WeChat?”

“I remember the size of this update package was only a few hundred megabytes; how could it fit so many things?”

As the third brother’s voice sounded, the eldest and second brothers also came to his side.

Although these two were also updating WeChat, they hadn’t finished updating yet.

“Click in and see.”

“Maybe it’s just a link to download these software.”

The eldest brother’s voice sounded.

After nodding, the third brother was the first to open the Pinduoduo mini-program.

The next second, an interface almost indistinguishable from the Pinduoduo app appeared before the three of them.

Looking at this scene, all three of them were a bit stunned.

Because this interface, apart from a very obvious close mini-program button in the upper right corner, had almost no difference from Pinduoduo.

The third brother also clicked into various detailed interfaces of this Pinduoduo mini-program and found that he could really buy things and make purchases directly on it!

“Go check out the Douyin mini-program,” the eldest brother said.

And the third brother nodded.

Then he clicked the very obvious close button in the upper right corner, and almost instantly, the Pinduoduo mini-program exited without any hindrance.

Afterward, the few of them also came to the Douyin mini-program interface.

Similarly, the Douyin within the mini-program also had almost no significant difference from the Douyin app.

In Wang Mo’s previous life, WeChat did not have a Douyin mini-program, only a Kuaishou mini-program, but in this world, since both Douyin and WeChat were developed by him, he could include it without any restrictions.

And looking at the Douyin mini-program that could also be scrolled through, the few of them were all a bit surprised.

“Holy cow, how did they do this?”

“Does this mean that in the future, many other software won’t be needed, and just WeChat will be enough?”

The third brother couldn’t help but swallow.

Clearly, at this moment, he somewhat understood why this update was mandatory.

Because the mini-program feature was indeed too powerful.

However, the second brother quickly discovered some issues.

“Although occasional use is fine,”

“This mini-program is still a simplified version, with overall functions reduced.”

“Many functions are relatively limited.”

“However, the convenience of this thing is indeed too exaggerated; it won’t be long before QQ follows suit.”

Listening to the second brother’s words, the third brother and the eldest brother couldn’t help but nod.

They also realized how much impact this feature would bring.

Afterward, the second brother and the eldest brother, after their own WeChat updates were completed, also began to study the mini-programs themselves.

At this time, the third brother had returned to the WeChat homepage.

He also wanted to see what the remaining content of this update was.

The next second, he opened the chat dialog box with the eldest brother and quickly found the Red Envelope function in the plus sign.

And this function was even ranked before the transfer!
