What is Wireless Application Protocol (WAP)?
WAP (Web Application Protocol) is a standard protocol that enables mobile devices, such as smartphones and feature phones, to access internet content and services. It is specifically designed for wireless networks with limited bandwidth and devices with smaller screens and lower processing power. WAP facilitates tasks like browsing websites, sending emails, and accessing online applications by delivering optimized, lightweight content. It was an early technology that helped bridge the gap between traditional web services and mobile device capabilities.
