Ratings and reviews

I used to use this app and it worked fine. The ads were somewhat annoying as it interrupts every other interaction, but it's free. I'm trying to use the app again. It is stuck in a loop asking for my email and then press and hold to confirm you aren't a robot. It just keeps repeating this over and over again. The app isn't usable as a result. I cleared the cache and data, yet it still didn't work. I uninstalled the app and reinstalled, still doesn't work. This is on a Samsung Galaxy Note10+

Terrible way to operate. It cancels the lines far too frequently and then does not allow you to see past texts so you can retrieve the number so you can text them back. Absolutely horrible app the does not allow for infrequent use of once a week or so. They could easily change this setting to 30 days but they choose not to This is the main reason for the 1 star rating. I'd give zero if I could as this policy is abhorrent.

Horrible , very buggy app ! Don't use this ! The app can lose all the phone numbers that called/texted you, and all your messages even when you recently got your new number and it is still supposed to be active. It has severe login problems. This app is not at all ready to be used in the real world. It suspends accounts without any valid reason. It gives incorrect, false reasons for unacceptable failed logins. The customer support is too technically incompetent to help.
