very nice apponly problem is not supporting right to left languages (Hebrew)other then that working good
Terrible experience.
Hangyeol Lim
Storage management is terrible, even if I delete all pictures and documents the app takes so much space. Also on group chats the chat starts to skip to the top when people send messages, I cant even read what theyre sending. Also the time that takes my messages to send is hideous, super slow compared to other SMS apps.
idk
