this is like one of the worst texting apps ever I do not get why so many people use it (to the point it's impossible to communicate without it because most people only have this app). It crashes so much won't let me end a call when I accidentally call someone everything is glitchy and takes too long to send my texts even tho my wifi is perfectly fine.

1. App opens ads in browser without any permission during a call. If you try to close ad and browser, app reopens browser with same ad again and again. 2. App is slow af 3. Uses a lot of storage for nothing 4. Redownloads? stuff that should be available without internet connection 5. Incredibly slow with poor internet connection, even with plain text messages 6. No normal backup and integration with pc version, so you can easily lose your data Sometimes it's behavior looks like malware

If you switch from iPhone to Android phone as main device, or vice versa, you lose access to your backups. Only phones are allowed as main device. I lost some data from a long time ago due to quirks in their backup feature. SMS verification rarely works in certain networks and you'll be stuck with call verification, which is only allowed once every 24 hours. After a month, your images and videos are no longer accessible outside your main device.
