My 3 year old niece has a heavily locked down Galaxy Tab S2 that she is only allowed to use for 45 minutes per day other than to talk to me and we use Viber to Video call each other. Always a great quality call. Good sound, great video quality, and it's simple for her to use. However, it would be nice if the proper information was provided in the "what's new" section. Maybe something that actually explains what the new features are.

TOO MANY ADS. I love this app and have been using it for many years. however, recently, there have been a LOT of short video ads that pop up on the bottom left of the messaging screen, especially for the desktop version. I gotta say they are REALLY distracting, and every time I get on the app to send a message, they frustrate me so much that I exit the app and force close it, looking for alternatives. I really hope they will make the ads less invasive and distracting.

It's an awesome app .this app has a lot of different options rather than others, such as wonderful stickers and delete option works whenever you want , and the edit option is so much helpful. The new update has something that, in my opinion, is annoying when use stickers jump up at the first line .would be better instead of this, we could make stickers in order as we like and want. I mean, organizing them as our priorities would be great.
