## Description

CloudVeil Messenger is a Telegram-based chat app designed for safe, simple messaging. It mirrors Telegram’s familiar experience but removes several features to reduce distractions and potential security risks. Key differences include blocked inline-bots, an in-app browser that’s turned off, GIF autoplay disabled, and restricted global search. Bots are disabled as well; organizational channels are available upon request, other channels are blocked, and groups are allowed with moderation on request.

This extension offers a focused, private messaging experience. It's ideal for users who want a Telegram-like app with fewer bots and content sources, plus the ability to block access to unwanted sites and apps using Screen Time.

## Review summary

CloudVeil Messenger is praised for its safety-focused design and blocking features, and some users report solid messaging when the app runs well. However, persistent issues dominate reviews: crashes and freezing, unreliable notifications and message delivery, onboarding/code activation problems, and unreliable call quality. Some users also note problematic iOS updates. Overall sentiment is mixed: appreciated for safety and blocking, but performance and onboarding reliability need improvement for broader adoption.

### Pros

- Strong safety focus with blocking controls that help keep conversations moderated.
- Generally solid messaging experience for users when the app runs smoothly.
- Blocking/unblocking features are appreciated, helping manage contacts and teen access.
- Positive overall sentiment from several reviews that value safety and filtering features.

### Cons

- Frequent crashes and freezing; performance is inconsistent across devices and sessions.
- Notifications and message delivery are unreliable, with delayed or missing alerts and deliveries.
- Onboarding/activation issues with codes, including codes not arriving or being sent to another device.
- Calls and video calls are prone to glitches or don’t work reliably.
- iOS-specific update problems, with slower or degraded updates compared to Android.
