Messenger 12+

I’ve used the messenger app for what seems like forever, I’ve had no issues with it other than the sound on calls being quiet which I know is not the fault of my phone, other than that everything is great.

The one glitch I’ve noticed and have asked other iPhone users about and they have confirmed it’s happening to them as well, is that sometimes notifications that come through (not the red circle by the app) and do not go away, for example I received a message about a week ago and it kept the notification in my notification wall even though I had pressed it and viewed the message, I deleted the notification by swiping it across and selecting delete but it came back within 24hours. It’s not really a big problem but it often does this with a few messages and they keep coming back, it’s a little frustrating and I often find myself thinking that I’ve missed messages from friends.

The last few recent updates have made this app trickier to use sometimes it won’t load attachments, voice notes, show pics that have been sent, if I search a chat it won’t load that part of the chat, when I try scrolling up it won’t go passed one or two days max, when I check on pinned messages it won’t show all of them, I’ve reinstalled the app 4-5 times to fix it it works for 5 minutes maybe and then go back to not working again, I’ve cleared the cache multiple times using the advice on AI Chat to help me fix the problems but it’s not doing it, also when sending photos I hate the new way where you send or receive multiple and you have to go each one just to get to one you want to look at, same with looking at chat media having to scroll down it makes it longer to do, it’s making it difficult to use an app that used to be easy and fun, it’s clearly the app that’s having a problem and only the small bugs are being prioritised and not the big issues like I have which is unfair PLEASE FIX THESE PROBLEMS, there are people I Speak to on this apps only and it makes it harder to communicate with these problems

Brilliant app facility. I use this all the time for lots of different reasons & activities.

One thing I’d like to be able to do though is group, flag & organise chats so it’s quick & easy to find certain conversations. I have friends chats all mixed in with work mate chats & I understand they automatically list in chronological order by the most recent message sent or received. I’d also like to be able to somehow create a way to keep certain chats separate but still see all new messages, even if it just means I can assign a certain colour to some chats & search for just that colour?!? Maybe have half a dozen different colours available. That way I could say, have red against work colleague chats, & blue against gym friends chats & yellow against my besties, & purple against customer chats etc etc!
