From a scale of 1 to 10, how romantic do you think you are? Here are some tips to bring out your own brand of special this Valentine season and unleash the romantic in you!

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and according to a survey, the top romantic gestures people do to treat their special someone this season are: going out for dinner, give flowers, write a love letter (greeting card), watch a movie, give chocolates and/or jewelries.

But these activities sound cliché don’t you think? They’re so cliché you’ll be wondering what other things can bring out the “romantic” in you in simple but very special way.

Fortunately, WeChat has some tricks up its sleeve to help you bring out your own brand of special in this season of love. Read along as we list down four reasons why 2013’s most-searched social mobile app is bound to be your hero for the coming love-smeared holiday.

 

WeChat lets you air out your emotions

Valentine’s is that day of the year which can be as exciting or harrowing as you allow it to be. Of course, because WeChat would rather have you go with the former, you can count on its voice messaging feature to send out sweet, personal notes minus the tension and jitters. You can even go further by compiling audio recordings of love tracks and present it as a special playlist. Plus point: Recipients can save these audio recordings to WeChat’s Favorite Messages feature and replay it whenever they please.

Here’s how:

Choose a contact. Press the sound icon at the bottom left of the screen then press “hold to talk” to start recording.

 

When you’re done, release the button and you’re audio message will be sent automatically:

Your i love yous and what nots are now ready for playback!

 

WeChat helps you keep moments on record

It’s true that creative juices flow freely during this endorphin-bound day of love. Why else would streets and structures be decked out with hand-painted postcards and paper hearts? Don’t miss out as WeChat lets you get your craft on with its video recording feature, which allows you to capture and deliver every creative stunt that you can think of. For a more real-time approach, opt to use WeChat’s video call and reach your loved ones wherever they are.

Here’s how:

Again, choose a contact and press the plus (+) sign at the bottom right of the screen.

Then press the video call icon to start a video call! You can also record a video message if you’re not the spontaneous type.

 

WeChat takes the ordinary up a notch

What else can shoot people with affection better than the words “I love you”? Bring in more weight to this statement when you say it over WeChat, which makes smartphone screens rain with roses every time it gets keyed in. Not only is it more economic, it’s also more accessible and surprising than a real bunch.

 

WeChat adds up to your list of surprises

Update your roll of to-dos for Valentine’s as WeChat brews up a Facebook activity especially for the season. Simply snap a photo with your loved one coupled with a note which explains why he/she is the Valentine of your eye and post it to WeChat’s Facebook page. The team will choose the best entry and will grant the winner a special gift—fitting to let the warmth of love melt into the occasion.
