It’s such a gift, and such a pleasure to be able to use the Internet to make phone calls and have good reception. I’m old so old that when my father was at work in New York City, and he wanted to call home to speak to my mother., 15 miles away there were “toll charges “which were extra additions onto your monthly bill.
We were a military family, and when we were stationed in Alaska, Colorado, South Carolina, it was letter writing every Sunday used for communication. By the middle of the week you would receive the letter from your loved one, and on Sunday everybody sat down at their typewriters to write letters, they were no phone calls, it was way too expensive.
To call using Messenger and the Internet, and have no extra charge for speaking to someone who is near and dear, although very far away, is really a gift and I appreciate it so much, have him come from another world. Thank you.♥️Show lessMessenger review
There’s no problem with the actual app itself. The problem is with 90% of people who use this app. I have a lot of experience with buying AND selling on marketplace. The majority of people don’t read the description and then ask you questions that you already answered in the add. 90% of people ask if it’s available. I tell them it is and then never hear from them again. I’m currently selling a $4000 motorcycle for $2000. Not a single person offered me anything close to my asking price. I get ridiculous offers from $500 to $1000. Overall it’s been a terrible experience.
The same thing happens when I’m trying to buy something. I had all the cash I needed to buy someone’s car. They either don’t respond, or it’ll take days to get a response. I once agreed to meet up with someone to buy their car. Had to go to the bank to take the money out and drive 45 minutes to get to the car… once I got there the guy stopped answering his phone.
Moral of the story. Don’t use marketplace. It’s full of time wasters and tire kickers. Use Craigslist. You have to pay a fee to post a listing on there so everyone is serious about buying or selling.Show lessRuined with Meta AI
The Meta AI bot gets in the way of basic functionality of the app. Being able to use the search button after typing a message to use effects is something I personally use with quite a few people I speak with. Since the Meta AI update was pushed, I have been unable to use those features for messages that are longer than one word without the Meta AI bot taking up residence where the search button used to be. The Meta AI bot feels redundant. I see more people complaining on online forums about it rather than praising it.
Before the AI functionality was released, the app was a solid 5/5. Really tanked the experience for me and quite a few others! Would be better if the UI was updated so the AI bot does not encroach on the other features of the app, for example, search bars & other “search” functions.Show less
