It was a great app until this last update. Maybe they're figuring out all the kinks, but my phone automatically updated it. I'm not a fan of the look, personally, with the individual boxes for responses. I also am unable to like messages nor see who liked messages. Some messages aren't sending. Again, maybe they're working it out, or my phone is having a hard time with it. But otherwise, I like the app.

before the update, it worked perfectly fine. loved it. it worked. after the update, couldn't send messages, tried multiple times. took me logging out and logging back in, but even then, all my groups were gone. it said I was still in them, but I couldn't access them because it wasn't in my groups tab. I had to get a friend to reinvite me to my groups. it was better the way they were. the update messed it all up.

buggy. the only reason I use it is because I have to. sometimes messages never get marked as read the most recent update makes it almost impossible to like a message or see who liked a message. you have to tap in just the right spot. will often be unable to send messages even when I have a stable internet connection will often just be unable to add people to groups, either by link or by adding them through the app.
