Ratings and reviews

Well, like others that have tried the app, I did love it. Worked well, liked the features, reasonable cost. But has very sadly dropped to 2 stars, and maybe should be 1. Simply because of how customer service treated me. I changed phones. Tried to open the app on the new phone and my account was locked. Was shown a message to email customer service so the accounts could be merged. No problem. I emailed. Never any reply. Tried again. No reply. I don't appreciate paying for apps I can't use.

A perfect five star app, when it is working but, for some reason the app just logged me out and, when I try to sign in, the setting option continuously cycles and, no options actually appear. Essentially, I have been separated from the phone number I paid for and, the conversations I am anticipating. So in the end, as one in need of a service to host certain conversations; this is how useful the product is to me as a paying customer.

Stopped working (as in booted me out of my account and wouldn't let me log back in) a full 24 hours before my free trial was up. Right in the middle of a text conversation, naturally, which meant I left the other party hanging with no way to contact them (didn't have the # memorized), and I couldn't even get it to let me pay for the subscription in advance to get it started back up. At least it happened early enough that I can cancel my subscription before it bills me.

What's new

This release includes bug fixes related to blocking unknown contacts on the conversation screen and creating a new burner number. We've also made some updates that improve performance and reliability.
