This is an amazing app, dont get me wrong, but when I try and leave group chats I don't even use, it's loads for about a minute and then says "Error leaving". It also got rid of the options at the top of the page today, don't know how to get it back. The last issue I'm having is it takes hours to send my texts. It just stays as an empty, blue circle. PLEASE FIX THIS!!! 3 stars.

incredibly bad echo on all calls. camera often stops working (only in app) making it so after 3-4 I have to restart my phone. sometimes camera won't even turn on. message updates aren't always accurate (when my friend says they got the text, on my end multiple days later it still says it hasn't sent. when I have an incoming call it pops up a notification but doesn't tell me who's calling. icons for people stop working for long periods of time and then randomly start working for a day and break.

The app is overall great, sure ot can be a bit glitchy here and there, but the bugs are rarely even big. The only thing that's really annoying, is that on some devices you can have a full theme, on others you can decorate it a little bit, and on aome (like mine) you're stuck with a dark blue, amd cannot change it. I've tried many different ways, but it just doesn't work. It's not that much of a big deal, but it's just a really annoying bug :/
