Ratings and reviews

There are better messaging apps, but this is the one my sorority uses. Like most popular apps, they are not very compatible with Android users. I will see notifications come in of new messages... but they will lag for DAYS before I see them in the chat. I often have to text my sisters for clarification and often don't participate in conversations because the app can't keep up. I've cleared my cache, data, updated, uninstalled so many times and this is a constant problem.

My sorority switched over to this app in April, the android version was absolutely terrible. The app would crash my phone every time I opened it. Also the format of the app was completely different from everyone with an apple device who was using the app so no one was able to help me attempt to navigate it. There was an update recently that completely changed the app for Android users. Now the app is so much easier to use, doesn't crash my phone, and is extremely similar to the apple version.

Amazing app for groups, the only thing is the android version really lacks quality and features compared to ios version.
