Didn't wanted to rate any star to the app as i wasn't able to explore it coz the app didn't open in my phone ( Realme 7); The basic issue faced by alot of consumers is -It shows " Execution not allowed in this phone" after installation of the app in the phone. Kindly fix it soon.

Very bad app. I could install and work for two, three months and suddenly it crashed one day and now it doesn't even open on my mobile . I sent an email to the supporting staff but use till now after months

Trying for getting used to it. I wish to use this app. for chat and messaging directly instead of Whatsapp. I desire to use and patronise Indian apps. But I find it a hard nut to crack. Despite having fulfilled all conditions I am not allowed to send message and chat.Kindly help.
