Appreciate that the auto-scroll has been disabled. Thank you for that fix. However, you broke playback of old messages. If I'm trying to "catch up" on a backlog of unheard messages and a new transmission is received the playback of the old message stops, even if I am in busy status. I understand that if I am in active status I may want to hear the current conversation, but we need a way to reliably play back historical messages without interruption. This used to work and broke recently.

I love this app for a variety of reasons. 1. It works like a walkie talkie, but with completely unlimited range. 2. you can exit the app so that you don't receive messages. (this is GREAT especially if you are off the clock. ) 3. it records all of the messages. this is great when you work with the " i didn't say that" guy. you can LITERALLY hit a button and prove them wrong. (beware! if you say "i wanna bang the bosses daughter " someone else can hit a button and take your job!)

It's good, but that would be cool if there was a button where when you're outside the app you can press and send the message to the person you were talking to. Another nice feature would be having the voices not over lap or interrupt each other if you are talking to one person separately then your other friend's voice comes in lol. Also, is there a way to have history saved temporarily? Like delete the data used after one or two days so I can still save it but not use my memory if I forget.

You can create a widget on the homescreen to talk to a person without opening the app. You can also buy wireless hardware buttons. If you set Status to "Solo" you will prevent the overlap from other Contacts and Channels.They are muted and audio is sent to History. To delete History, go to Options--History. Email support@zello.com for more info
