Happens a lot with software in different countries where something gets popular in one country but not in another.

I used whatsapp for awhile and all switched to wechat for the same reason, unless everyone moved to whatsapp all at once it becomes pretty pointless in china.

Because it's not so popular here in China (and like Xpat John said, there's Weixin/Wechat). It's similar to Chinese people asking foreigners why we don't use Weibo or QQ, because most likely, a lot of people back in our home country aren't familiar with Weibo/QQ.
