Ratings and reviews

I just got a new phone which installed this app with it. It made it so I couldn't send any sms messages at all! I could still receive sms (about 10-15 minutes later than they actually sent it) but I could not send. After a few hours of digging I came to the conclusion that this app is what was causing me problems. I uninstalled it and my sms messages IMMEDIATELY started working again so I know for 100% that this app was at fault. I'd give O stars if I could! Glad to have it gone.

Look at it's permissions, very intrusive spyware. You have no control over this. You cannot disable it. For me, it constantly tries to connect to a carrier different from the one I have, takes over the phone and freezes it for 6 minutes, during this I can't even use my phone! I'm on day 2 now of it freezing my phone like this every few hours, for 6 minutes, all because I did a reboot. I go through this each time I do a reboot. Google needs to get it's act together.

This cause mobile network connection to become totally unreliable, and drains your battery in no time, due to constant reconnection attempts. Since I updated I've had to switch my phone to 3g from 4g in order to maintain connectivity. It's ok to say it's the networks fault, and not the apps but if 90% of the reviews on here all say the same thing it's safe to assume there's definitely a problem, and who's fault it is, is not my problem. I've had enough of 'not good enough'.
