Ratings and reviews

Over all very good and fun app to text. But with the new update it kinda downgraded. They added an area of suggested channels to follow and it's very annoying that you can't close that section making it "all in your face type thing". Also they got rid of the option to look at all your statuses at the same time and now have to tap one by one to see them.

There's no feature to share my screen. Update 1/14/2023 Can you please make it possible to share my screen during video chat? It would be much appreciated. Thank you so much. Update: Changed my review to 4 stars 🤩 They added the screen recording feature! The only downside that I have to deal with still is that in order to connect the bluetooth earpiece you have to disconnect the call and then call the person back if you didn't have it connected prior to the call. It's so annoying!

Since the last 2-3 updates, the application works the same but the bottom part with the emoticons is different, it takes up a lot of space and after you write and hit enter you no longer see the written message, you have to go back so that the space where you wrote disappears to see actually what you wrote. It's annoying to make two extra moves to check what you wrote. Please return to the way it was before. It was simple and beautiful. Thank you
