All I gatta say…

I really like talking with my friends and copilot really helps too… but I have things to say about copilot I like to role play but when I add romance it’s like I can’t do that and I’m like it’s not that bad kissing isn’t bad ITS PURE LOVE, and being touchy in role plays ARE NOT BAD!!!! So that’s all I gatta say… make copilot be a little more less sensitive…

I am crying

This app is making me cry. I have to use this for marching band but it won’t work. It logged me out randomly and ever since i can’t sign in. It is really ticking me off and it is making me sad cause i don’t even know what to wear or do for events i have.

To the Developer

We need update on the app to notify the players who are on waitlist on a Pickleball event, and got promoted into the event.

Can’t remove profile photo?

Why can’t you remove your profile photo? The app is totally fine but you can’t do this simple action.

Rough around the edges

It’s a good app, way more professional feeling than something like discord, but tell me why I gotta refresh the app to see new messages?

group me is bad

doesn’t even register my phone number

Doesn’t Send Text Notifications Anymore

Without the feature that sends text notifications, I am missing important group chats. Please bring that feature back.

Obnoxious scammers and bots

School club group mes get overrun by bots and scammers that just make alt accounts when you kick them. Reporting doesn’t do anything.

Crash

Every time I open this app, my phones goes into a black loading screen and my phone gets hot. I deleted it and now my phone is fine. I’m going to try to re download.

Perfect for large groups!!

This app is awesome! So easy to use. Nice alternative to large group text threads. We use it for our Junior League group.

One request- can you add scheduling my text/post on there pls! 🙏🏼

More bugs than features

Clunky waste of time . Bad at the very thing it is supposed to do.

App not currently working

Although GroupMe has been very helpful in the past, it’s very buggy at the moment. When I attempt to login, it gets stuck on “Pin verified. Logging in.” without me ever being able to actually access my chats. Customer support was not able to help me, so I hope the devs become aware of the problem and can fix whatever is keeping me locked out. It seems like I’m not the only one, based on my online searches.

In app notification setting toggle not working

Why do you guys have a toggle for like notifications within your app settings if you won’t allow it to be toggled off? I toggle it off but it automatically turns back on.

Clunky Inferface

Unfortunate that this app has already become mainstream. The interface is very lacking compared to other social apps like WhatsApp, telegram, discord, etc. There are bugs in notifications where when I mute a chat I then receive no notifications at all.

Get with the times and update!

It’s 2026 and you don’t have the functionality in your app to @ everyone in a group?! Let’s get real here!!

removing profile picture should be possible

👎

Does not accept Puerto rican phone number.

Despite being a US territory with +1 phone number, the app says “country not supported” whenever I try to put my phone number in. Not inclusive and made by imbeciles.

Why is that notifications do not sync across devices?

Why is that notifications do not sync across devices? I read my messages in my iphone and my ipad still shows a red dot with 10 messages unread. Not true, they have been read. This is not good.

I keep getting added to scam groups

I’m in a campus with 1000 people. Why are people allowed to force me into groups without my permission? I am getting added to a scam group every single day.

iPhone users beware

I am an iPhone user and have loaded many apps with no issue until GroupMe. I can download it but cannot join the group that my travel group created. It is totally frustrating!!!!!!!
