Ratings and Reviews
Awesome but the notification alert
Love WeChat and use it daily as I live in China. However why does it repeat notification sound when ever I open the app after (a while) I receive messages. When I receive it beeps, when opening the app it beeps again. It’s annoying. Can you explain why it’s like that
Suggestion
Please upgrade online status and other user has seen our msg or not
Very user-unfriendly
I tried to sign up for an account and I need to go through this weird, over-the-top complex security check process to just create an account! I have to have myself verified by another user who's been using the app for more than 6 months? Maybe everyone in China is on wechat but have you thought about the chances where that's not the case in other regions? What moron came up with this idea? I'm not signing up to be an FBI agent or a soldier who launches nukes for crying out loud.
