According to the same report, by the end of Q4 2022, Zalo had become the leading messaging platform in Vietnam with an 87% usage rate. This impressive figure is attributed to the numerous notable features integrated into Zalo, including:

Free phone and video calls.
Connecting users through multiple methods like phone number, username, ID, and location-based friend suggestions.
