Ratings and reviews

You can't delete messages as admin on the web, nor can you perform message searches. The message search on mobile was made worse. Instead of updating the results with older messages as you scroll down, you have to repeatedly click a "Keep Searching" button, and if you accidentally click on one of the results, you lose your search progress. The app would benefit from a "jump to message" function when looking through the gallery.

It was a great app until this last update. Maybe they're figuring out all the kinks, but my phone automatically updated it. I'm not a fan of the look, personally, with the individual boxes for responses. I also am unable to like messages nor see who liked messages. Some messages aren't sending. Again, maybe they're working it out, or my phone is having a hard time with it. But otherwise, I like the app.

Our group switched to GroupMe several years ago because (at the time) Google messages could not handle more than 20 people. It is serving us well. However, it has not been easy to add people. Sometimes as I go through the prompts, it seems to work OK. But other times I will enter their name or number over and over and just can't get them added. iPhone users are the hardest to get added.
