Features & Capabilities

SoftTalk Messenger is Nigeria's all-in-one messaging app that lets you chat, make free audio and video calls, and shop genuine products and services. Connect with friends and family using instant messaging, voice calls, or video chats. You can add contacts from your phone book or simply enter a number to start a chat, send voice notes, and share photos, videos, files, and emoji.

It also features flexible calling options with monthly packages, wallet credits for low-rate international calls, and group chats for collaborations with friends and family. With in-app shopping and quality-controlled products, SoftTalk turns messaging into a seamless chat-and-shop experience—the first Nigerian app to combine secure chat with a built-in marketplace.

User Reviews

Users praise SoftTalk Messenger for being easy to use, fast, and affordable with a Nigerian-owned identity. However, recurring drawbacks include verification code delivery problems, OTP restrictions across regions, delayed notifications, and subpar voice call quality. Some users also report performance slowdowns on iPhone and occasional typing issues. The app shows potential and strong local engagement but reliability and cross-region access remain common concerns.

  • Fast and convenient messaging experience
  • Affordable pricing / cheap texting

Cons

  • International region restrictions: OTP access not available in some countries
  • Notifications are not real-time and messages can be delayed
  • Voice calls quality is unreliable and needs improvement
  • Performance issues on iPhone and occasional typing glitches (keyboard freezes)

Useless app and waste of data in downloading. It doesn’t sent OTP to other nations and only favored it country

Firstly, I am very appreciative of this Afrikan-owned messaging system. My app works for the most part, however, there are 2 issues I am experiencing. First, I am not receiving message notifications in real-time. I will be notified only when I open SoftTalk. And, sometimes, an incoming sent message will be delayed. Secondly, during the middle of typing a message, (sometimes when using an emoji), the keys will stop working and my only solution is to press several functions to enable typing again. Your assistance with both of these matters will be greatly appreciated.
