Ups and downs

By Bumpercakes (Pcmac user)

I have iPhone 6S. It’s getting to the point where it isn’t notifying my when I gets texts randomly. I was excited to find this app. My phone alerts me now thru this app when I get texts, except for iMessages, which is fine. I chose not to turn off the iMessage feature on my phone. This app is great for texting those without iMessage. It says sent, delivered, read, and shows when someone is typing u back, just like iMessaging. I like how customizable this app is. Backgrounds, fonts and text bubble colors. And it is syncing between my phone, iPad and Apple Watch, which wasn’t working as it should thru the regular this app app that comes on all these devices. It’s nice to be able to text people without Apple devices from my iPad too. However, this app is glitchy. It will shutdown randomly, and then you lose whatever u were going to send in a text, even pics, and have to type it all again. That is frustrating. And sometimes when I receive texts it will say who the text is from by name, and other times just show the phone number, even if you have been continually texting the same person who is a saved contact. So over all it’s an ok app. If the glitches were addressed, I would have given 5 stars.
Unacceptable

By Adrena (Pcmac user)

I downloaded this app because a friend sent a video and apparently that was the only way I could view it. Within an hour I had at least 10 spam emails flooding my email inbox. I’m thinking jeez. What did enter my email address in to to get all this junk mail. Not just unwanted junk from some service I have a log in for. Literally junk ice never seen before like #trumpcaremedicare# and **skinnypill** and AHSwarranty2019 and [certified]lettersfromsanta... as the sender identification. Like I’ve literally never signed up for anything that would send me anything involving trump.... and this flood started literally at the same time I downloaded this app. I literally watched a new email arrive while I was being horrified by the amount of spam I had received in a hour. I though this was a Verizon app. I’m assuming it must be and that’s how they got my email. Because I never entered anything besides a phone number. And I was hesitant to even sync my contacts. I said no to every other permission. And now I regret not saying no to my contacts access. I have deleted the app from my phone and have since received at least three more spam emails. If they do not stop I will be taking dramatic further action.
Necessary Evil

By LukeBreaux (Pcmac user)

Like most people, I don’t tend to write reviews for things I like. I also don’t tend to write reviews about things I don’t care for, but this application deserves a review. Unfortunately, I don’t have a whole lot of great things to say about this app. I have lots of issues with it. I certainly consider it a necessary evil. I don’t like how it doesn’t play nice with the native messages app (which I still feel like is far superior to any other messages app out there). I have the desktop version of this application and it does not talk with the mobile version, which is a very big oversight and needs to be dealt with. It frequently displays the incorrect number of unread messages in the bubble on the app icon. The entire app feels like it was thrown together in a very short period of time by a development team that was not given appropriate resources to build a great app. Yes, I have the latest versions of each app. At this time, the only reason I haven’t deleted the app altogether is because I’ve recently started to have issues with receiving large media files from folks who do not have iPhones so cannot use iMessages. Use this app if you need to, but don’t download it just for fun.
Glitchy, and there is no block feature

By Pat Rai (Pcmac user)

Okay first the positives: i love having a messaging app that allows for customizable fonts, backgrounds, etc. It says when messages are sent, delivered, and read. That’s where the positives end. It is glitchy and will sometimes shut off when I’m in the middle of typing. It doesn’t always notify me with the person’s name. For some reason their number will show up as if they were not saved in my phone. I left iMessages on bc I still wanted to use it to text my friends that did have an iPhone, but I found my messages would show up twice, once in each app. I figured this was just a compromise I would have to make for leaving iMessages on. HOWEVER my biggest issue is that there are no settings to block a number, and this app does not cooperate with the native phone app and messages app. I had someone blocked on my phone and this app allowed the messages to go through. BIGGEST MISTAKE. I only got this app because VZW is requiring it to view bigger media files sent from non-iPhone users. VZW, I am deleting this app until you get your act together. Sheesh.
