Ratings and reviews

Hands down my "GoTo" messaging app. Line Messaging won't work, Whatsdatapp won't work unless you log off and log on to each device. I have tried them all... WIRE works! On my phone, tablet, laptop and Chromebook AT THE SAME TIME!!! I can message when I want to do so! And the video calls are great. I video call daily to Asia and Europe and this connection is almost always perfect. Security is great too. You are NEVER going to find a messaging app that works as well as WIRE!

I've had this app before and it worked great. I absolutely loved it. Now I have it but it keeps closing. it says that I'm not synchronized with my device. I haven't done anything different. I've checked everything. Now I'm having problems with all my apps since installing this one. None of them want to work. Not sending it receiving messages. Very disappointed.

Been a Wire user for years, now. It's been a roller coaster. I have 4 people who downloaded it UPON MY REQUEST. I've sent 3 of them messages today and none of them have gone thru yet. I ping and ping and ping, nothing. They won't deliver. I've had to start sending 5 second voice messages just to get the texts to finally deliver. I've tried VERY hard to give this app a chance. But it's so stunningly unreliable. Disappointing doesn't begin to describe my annoyance. I WANT this app to work!
