Ratings and reviews

unreliable. constantly disconnecting with no warning. support expects me to keep using it as my primary phone number to do their troubleshooting for them. I've had to abandon this entirely, which is unfortunate as I was trying to find something to replace Google Voice. I would say they're treating me like a beta tester, but betas have fewer problems than this. I feel like I'm an alpha tester

Thanks it has been rectified

very fantastic xmpp client
