iPad mini can’t get synchronized messages

I use WeChat on both iPhone(7 plus) and iPad (mini3) with the same id, for some reason I can only read the push notifications on my iPad, but when I actually get in WeChat on iPad, the messages I saw in notification can’t be sync’ed(sync msg option ticked on when logging in with iPad) I thought it was a temporary problem which would be resolved with new release, until now it’s still happening. Only around 5% of all of the msgs are received by iPad. 4-5 years ago this function works perfectly all the messages are sync’ed, still using the same iPad, iPhone was 6+ then. Since 3 years ago, this sync problem arose, it first appeared as iPad not receiving messages, then it can receive push notifications but when open WeChat, these same messages can’t be received on the app. I have tried stay on WeChat or never turn off the screen, nothing works. I really hope WeChat can solve this problem it’s a very useful feature.

One of the best of its kind

I'm going to make this short, this testing app is one of the best,many many functions and better than facebuk twittur etc. the people who don't like this app is cos they never used an app as grate as wechat. Other people that give it low rating is just trying to make this app seem bad and say "it's a scam" privacy alert blah blah,but it's not it's grate, there's nothing to worry about, ppl get blocked is cos they don't know how to use it, i have 2 accounts with no problem, and it tells u to link ur bank account cos it's a feature on wechat where u can pay by scanning stuff, even shops or restaurants like McDonald's use wechat to pay and etc, and others that don't like it is cos the don't understand Chinese. Haha sad

Terrible and unreliable

I downloaded this app to be able to contact my friend going to China but within one day when I went to message them after their arrival, my account had been locked out and I was told it was blocked due to unusual activity and no further explanation - as far as I’m aware, I did everything correctly and broke no terms of service.

It told me I needed somebody with an account older than 6 months to verify me in order to unblock my account (which is a stupid rule in itself), and I found two people to attempt to help me but they were both told their accounts had been restricted because of unusual activity as well. Upon finally finding a way to contact my friend, I discovered that her WeChat account had also been blocked as well as our mutual friend’s who downloaded it for the same purpose.

This is clearly an issue with this service rather than five different people doing things to warrant their accounts being blocked with no worthy explanation. I would absolutely not recommend this app as a way to contact anybody, and would strongly urge anyone to find an alternative.
