Ratings and reviews

Why are we back to the multiple Go Live terms permission clicks? I've said NO every time, quit asking, unless I select that feature. This was a previously fixed issue that's returned. Too many bots! Attaching images can still be hit or miss. You get brought to a blank kik screen and need to type to find the group or individual, instead of seeing your list of current conversations. Can be a pain if you don't remember their kik ID. I still miss the video chat. I used to use kik instead of Skype.

This used to be a really good app but now it's worthless. I was once able to send and receive messages with a quickness now it takes forever to send and receive messages. I uninstalled and reinstalled several times thinking that would fix the problem, but nope it's still the same. I can't even change my picture because it kicks me out of the app and it says it stopped working. I even completely deactivate my old account to make a new one and it's still doing the same thing.

10/14/22 Full of bots and scammers! No verification process to keep them somewhat controlled. No follow up to report of bots, scammers. Every day bombardment of "friend" requests from bots. You're not able to create a new public group. The process gets stuck in a loop and never works. Doesn't use GPS to verify location (it doesn't have to be shared with other members) to prevent scammers from gaining access to information. I have talked to a few real people but it takes a long time to find them.
