WORST APP EVER. UPDATE: This app is a complete nightmare. I have never seen something so poorly optimized in my life.

the app only works about 50% of the time. the rest of the time it says "you have exceeded your limit" but they can't tell you what your limit is, neither number of transactions or amount for a specified time, as in a week or month.

the functions of the app are good, the security measures are good, the only thing that bothers me that the amount to send is so low. sometimes you need to send bigger amounts, but you can't, you have to go to a store location that has Western Union in it, that means for me in most cases a couple of hours of driving.
