This app is super good I can talk to any one at any time and it feel like I am with them right next to me if I were the president I would have spend all of my money on skype as a support

A number of issues

1. Doesn’t respect device region when displaying dates; only displays in American format (mm/dd/yyyy). After years of complaints, they’ve never fixed this.

2. Doesn’t sync with desktop version/cloud or background app update doesn’t work: Notification badges remain even when I have read all messages on my computer & content/conversations only update whenever the app is opened.

Wonderful ✨🔥

This is the best app on my phone. I can talk to my loved ones who are in different countries and it still sounds like they are here with me. Just wonderful👏🏼👌🏼👌🏼
