Ratings and reviews

The app is clunky and laggy. The interface is more form than function and not intuitive. It severely compresses images sent to group chats—turning them into blurry, pixelated garbage. This isn’t the 90s with dial-up. Also, it demands full media access just to save a capture. Scoped storage has existed since 2019. Sony has had years to implement this. Upgrade your servers, fix the UI, stop wrecking images, and respect user privacy.

always a struggle to use my microphone with this app. I have no problems with any other apps on my phone. trying to start a party is a lot of guesswork sometimes, and trying to find the right friends to invite is also not as intuitive as I would like. I feel like this app used to be okay a few years ago before many of these changes, but I wouldn't really recommend using this app unless absolutely necessary. I use this app to keep in contact with friends that still use Sony consoles.

Would rate it higher, but I've had some weird issues crop up in regards to just trying to join party chats with my friends at random times, claiming another app is using the microphone, despite literally every other tab is closed and app permissions triple-checked to ensure no other app is using it. Not sure what to do to fix this, but the lack of consistency with it's claim is irksome to say the least, as it doesn't do this all the time.
