What is WAP?

WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) is a technical standard for accessing information over a mobile wireless network. It provides a way to view internet content on mobile devices with limited bandwidth and screen sizes. It's commonly used for accessing news, weather, sports scores, and other simple data services on older mobile phones. Modern smartphones have largely replaced WAP with standard web browsers.
