Ratings and Reviews
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.
Deletes your account for inactivity
So Wechat decides at one point within their short spanned dying lifespan, that to further appeal to their customers and fuel their selfish, blinded, narrow minded and worthless objectives, they think that “hey, so in order to really reel in our customers, let’s just stab them in the back and deactivate their account after a period of inactivity, forcing them to create a NEW account, then having to add all their contacts AGAIN along with deleting their conversations prior to the disabling of account. Freaking A for awesome idea”. This was by far one of the most dim witted, pointless and worthless updates to implement to an app that revolves around communicating with people especially when overseas as there are countries that restrict the use of facebook or other social networking applications. I had faith and interest in this app, where I could rely on it’s straight forward, easy to use functions to send/receive messages overseas. But alas, this simple task has completely become void as your account is susceptible to being deactivated at any time, whenever Wechat desires to apply it’s sadistic lust to inconvenience all their customers however they please.
Fix this mess you have created.
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
