User Reviews

Users praise cross-device messaging without a phone number and ease of use across Apple and non-Apple devices, but multiple reviews highlight performance/stability issues (CPU, battery drain, lag) and older-device compatibility problems, plus a cluttered UI with threaded messages making it hard to view conversations.
Pros
  • Cross-device support with no phone number required (uses email) for messaging.
  • Easy to use and efficient for texting.
  • Works across Apple and non-Apple devices (e.g., iPhone to Samsung).
Cons
  • Performance and stability issues: high CPU usage, battery drain, lag, and occasional freezes.
  • Poor support for older devices (iPhone 5, older iPads, iPod Touch) and update prompts.
  • Cluttered UI and threaded conversations making it hard to view messages.

What the actual hell is this icon man?? The old one was COMPLETELY fine. It looks like yall just asked AI to make a new one. The smile for no reason? The weird graident? Why is it green??? Listen to your customers and change it back, NO ONE wanted this.

I know I am not muted by the person I am trying to talk to in chat but it keeps the sender airplane button gray even when I have a message in the empty text container so I can’t say anything in chat and when the sender airplane button is blue I still can’t send cause it says there is an error with sending the message and tells me to try again and the person I tried to chat to does not get a notification and they don’t receive my message and chat doesn’t work for them either.

I updated this on one of my devices and hate it! AI features are terrible and unwanted, issues viewing past conversations, and notification issues. The new ugly icon is really symbolic of the update choices.
