Network issue

The app keeps telling me I’ve got a network issue which is not possible, everything else is working fine and it started today because I updated the app, I regret it so much, since I installed it’s been fine but just after the update I cannot even login, tried logging out and now definitely out with no possibilities to log back in again

After update issues

I have been using this app for a while today bew update came out and as the app suggested me to update i did but after that the app would kick me out by itself like it won’t let me in this app at all... this is really disappointing. Im not able to use this app anymore. Can you guys please look into it and fix this issue.

Needs a better policy to deal with racists

I’ve been using this app on and off for months now and I’ve had almost no bad experiences with any of the people except for today. I was talking to two great people and then another person comes in calling us stupid Americans and literally just yelling about how they hate Americans. As soon as they left a Korean person came in yelling “black American black American” and then left. How am I supposed to report them while in the call I they leave so quickly???? How am I supposed to give proof???? The worst part is after the call you can see the table history and after I reported one account I tried to report another but the table history was gone. (Not that reporting it would do a nothing anyways) but I wasn’t able to even block the two people who thought discrimination was funny. The app was doing so well until I saw how they handle those type of people and now I’m pretty frustrated with hilokal smh. Do better.

Translation accuracy

Translation on this app isn’t 100% accurate

Response from developer

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We appreciate your input, and we'll definitely look into improving the volume settings to allow for lower levels and consider adding a mute feature for other users. Your suggestions are valuable to us!

Racist perverts run rampant on this voice chat and a report does nothing.

If you’re Black or gay or both. Prepare to be harassed by dozens of Middle eastern men who beg you for nudes and call you every single slur on the voice chat if you don’t comply! Don’t bother reporting it, they don’t moderate the voice tables so you’ll be left in the audience while some guy in Algeria berates you for either your race or sexuality before hoping in yet another unmoderated DM to berate you some more.

FIX VOLUME Immediately

The volume is so loud when at its lowest,it makes no sense why I can’t turn it to volume 0;lowest sound is 20.Fix the volume and allow us to turn it al the way down like you would on a T.V and add a mute feature to mute other people
