User Reviews

Reviews are predominantly negative, citing reliability and login issues, onboarding friction, and feature gaps (PDF/file sharing, read receipts, screenshot controls). Privacy concerns about sharing data with other platforms and government use are common. A few notes highlight editing messages and emoji support as minor positives, and occasional praise exists but overall sentiment is poor.

Pros

Message editing and emoji support
Some users view the app positively (e.g., "Great app" with caveats)
Reportedly used by government/military users for communications

Cons

Unreliable messaging and notification delivery (missed messages, delayed notifications, app crashes or being offline)
Authentication/login issues and unclear password requirements (difficulty logging in, password reset problems)
Difficult onboarding/setup and confusing password requirements
Feature gaps and restrictions (cannot save/forward photos, cannot send PDFs, limited file sharing, no read receipts or visibility of viewers/likes, limited notification controls for screenshots)
Privacy concerns and data sharing with other platforms

Recent reviews

Out of all the similar messaging apps out there for IL5 use, this is the absolute worst. Hopefully the Navy drops the pilot and goes with a better option!
