it used to be an... acceptable messenger. in all ways inferior to signal but about 95% of my contact list is stuck in the stone age so i ain't convincing them and well, if it works, it works. but the mandatory meta ai button is really crossing the line for me. i don't mind offering it as an option for the people who like it. i can even understand making it opt out. but mandatory? that's just too much. i'm not using it, it's wasting screen space. just let me get rid of the bloody button.

It is basically the best communication app I've ever used since four years ago. I liked to create stickers and statuses for my family on my contacts. I can definitely texted myself to avoid accidentally texting somebody else so awkwardly. The only thing I dislike was when a random stranger called my number unexpectedly and I had to block him/her. I would recommend this app to anyone who wants to connect family and friends instantly. 👍🏻💚💯

I travel a lot so it's helped me keep in touch with ppl. The only complaint I have is that there are glitches with calling or text sounds. Quite often someone says they've been trying to call me and I see the notification but it didn't ring. Also, it would be nice if a deleted or edited message didn't say deleted /edited
