The new chat feature ping will be visible as a chat icon floating on the right side of the app. The new feature will let users share products, wishlists and carts with the contacts in their phonebook, and also chat with them while picking up your favourite stuffs. The new feature will also let the users share their screens and hence making it possible to browse together. Online shopping can never be more fun!
The new chat feature follows the rollout of the mobile number based login system launched by FlipKart earlier this month. Now users no longer require email address to login and register on the FlipKart app. It is also not required to reset the passwords.

Flipkart hopes to find solution to both these problems with their newly added features to their apps.
