VPN issue

Great blockchain technology, but when I have ProtonVPN on this app cannot trace a path
Notification Sounds

By 2737392 (Pcmac user)

Why can’t you allow people to use native iOS ringtones they have synced to their phone?
Awesome messenger

By twoshae9 (Pcmac user)

Knowing the vulnerabilities of conventional messengers, I’m very happy to see this app come from Loki. I’ve been on boarding friends, it’s pretty easy to set up, and very intuitive to use thereafter. Great to see that privacy doesn’t have to be insanely complicated! Thanks for all the hard work! Update: I’ve been having trouble getting notifications to work. Messages won’t appear until I open the app. Not sure if this is a bug, or stupidity on my part. Turned on notifications in settings for phone, and in app. Update on update: issue seems resolved, and very well explained as to why push notifications weren’t used. The option to use them is now available. Really amazing work to this app, and Loki. Keep it up!
Nah

By AlterSebasian (Pcmac user)

Can’t link my other device through the first one, I keep trying to link it, it just won’t happen; my friend add my this app id then sent messages, I can’t receive any.
Still nothing with new update, stay with Signal And Wickr for now! :(

By Reece O'Bryan (Pcmac user)

Please make sure to label all of your buttons with alternative text as well as any images. I am unable to use and navigate your app using voiceover with iPhone. Please update this and resolve this major issue and I am sure that this will be a five star review in the future. For now I will have to use Signal. I heard about this app and was really excited, until figuring out it is inaccessible. There is no way to create messages, no easy way to copy your this app and I can’t even navigate to any sort of menus if they exist, which I am sure that they do at the very least for some basic settings. Update: still nothing new with the new update. Could you please make some of these basic edits to your UI? Update: still patiently waiting.
