Ratings and reviews

For the most part I like it. Sometimes when it gets weird and I have to back out before continuing. Almost like it can't keep up. There are times its frustrating like it locks up, and will not let me post pics but will let me do reels. Photo cropping is a nightmare I have to go through extra steps beforehand to get the pictures I want to post whole.

I've been using this app for almost 3 years to post my art and message my friends. But as of late the app has stopped responding. It frequently won't send my messages, won't load posts, won't let me use certain story interactions, and won't let me receive messages. The first 2 years I had it, it worked perfectly. But the last year it's been pretty slow. Even after getting a new phone, updating it consistently, and even clearing extra storage.

The app works perfectly fine on my phone, I sometimes use the website version but that's only when my phone isn't available to me. I only started using this app this year and the only bad thing is it uses up a lot of storage space, I'm sure it uses a lot of data when I'm not in a place with working Wi-Fi. Also, i hate that when I'm posting videos on my stories, it cuts the video in half or less. I like the background options it has for messaging and the reels are entertaining.
