Ratings and reviews

This used to be a really good app but now it's worthless. I was once able to send and receive messages with a quickness now it takes forever to send and receive messages. I uninstalled and reinstalled several times thinking that would fix the problem, but nope it's still the same. I can't even change my picture because it kicks me out of the app and it says it stopped working. I even completely deactivate my old account to make a new one and it's still doing the same thing.

overall this all has a good idea of a social platform, But I have noticed issues over the years some more bothersome than others. After the recent update the app was given a feature, I forget what it was called (maybe kik its?) that allowed you to post a few sentences to a main page where others who were interested could contact you through that, while still having the other timed chat selection. It was a great, easy addition, now that it's gone I find the app has gotten boring and bland again.

No, that did nothing. The problem remains. Even after the developer's reply, the issue remains. Still cannot see the images. After some period of time any images in message threads can no longer be seen. A momentary glumps of them appear then immediately a blue square saying Image Not Available appears. This has been happening for years. Saerched online for solutions and no luck.
