### 1/5 — Broken, needs update

*2026-02-07, version 1.6.0*

Used to work great, able to forward from restricted channels and now it doesn’t work, needs to get updated

### 1/5 — App won’t let me forward private chats to myself like it used to

*2026-02-07, version 1.6.0*

They stopped doing that and I can’t save anything anymore this app is useless

### 1/5 — Awful update

*2026-02-06*

Awful update

### 1/5 — No more forwarding

*2026-02-03*

I will change my review once you guys bring back forwarding messages from private channels, otherwise this app is completely useless.

### 1/5 — Advanced forward

*2026-02-02, version 1.6.0*

Only reason I used app now time to find an alternative 😴

### 1/5 — Sucks

*2026-01-31, version 1.6.0*

Crashes constantly, messages don’t load, no communication from creator and the one thing I used the app for which is the forwarding feature doesn’t even work anymore.

### 3/5 — верните функцию!!

*2026-01-30*

убрали главную функцию после обновления, верните её!

### 1/5 — the app is completely broken

*2026-01-29*

the app is completely broken , as in , i can't even open the app anymore without it closing itself . i'll have to try opening the app upwards of 50 times just to read a new message , and the one and only thing i use this app for instead of the official app ,  advanced forwarding , is just not working . the button is there but when you press it , nothing happens , and all previous media sent to your saved messages through the advanced forwarding feature is perpetually stuck trying to load , but never ever goes past 0.0B/however many bytes it is

this app is completely useless now and a waste of storage , the only reason i still have it downloaded is because of the media i cant load in my saved messages . once this app starts working properly again , im saving everything then deleting it

### 1/5 — Y'all sold out. App is ruined

*2026-01-28*

The advance forward button no longer works. This app is supposed to be an unrestricted version of Telegram w/more capabilities. I guess you guys sold out to Telegram themselves. I hope the money was worth it, because your about to lose a ton of clients

### 2/5 — Не грузится приложение

*2026-01-24*

Сделайте пожалуйста обнову,странички вообще не грузит и по коду не зайти на другом устройстве из-за этого

### 1/5 — Constant crashing

*2026-01-22*

This app was working well but after the recent updates it just started crashes and closes on its own nonstop. It won’t even stay open long enough for your chat list to even load to click on them! Garbage now!

### 1/5 — Removed forwarding options

*2026-01-20, version 1.6.0*

Sad to see the only reason for downloading this app to be removed with newest version

### 1/5 — Doesn’t allow forwarding

*2026-01-19, version 1.6.0*

Doesn’t allow me forward from telegram anymore

### 1/5 — ADVANCED FOWARDING

*2026-01-18, version 1.6.0*

FOWARDING PRIVATE MESSAGES DOESN’T WORK ANYMORE! FIX IT PLEASE!

### 1/5 — Last update made it a bug riddled mess

*2026-01-18*

Everything was fine, even the ads although annoying were fine but the most recent update has caused it to now be an infinite crashing loop and the advanced fwd doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Forwarding

*2026-01-16, version 1.6.0*

You guys might as well delete the app, they removed the only feature people used the app for

### 1/5 — ???

*2026-01-16, version 1.6.0*

What happened to the forwarding function??

### 1/5 — Revert please

*2026-01-15, version 1.6.0*

Like everyone said, useless without forwarding feature.

### 1/5 — Please return to older version

*2026-01-15, version 1.6.0*

Forwarding doesn’t work anymore 😭😭😭

### 1/5 — Сливают номер

*2026-03-13*

После установки начались прозвоны с рекламой.Удалил,ну его.Не советую

### 1/5 — Loss of function.

*2026-02-21*

The app used to allow you to bypass restricted forwarding and no longer does, for many whom used the app, this makes it redundant. Another issue is the app’s default function - acting as a telegram client - isn’t very reliable, sometimes when you try to launch the app, it crashes, sometimes it doesn’t open at all, and sometimes when it does open, it just doesn’t allow you to open or alter any chats or channels whatsoever. 

TLDR; it doesn’t allow you to save or forward from restricted chats, and it doesn’t work at all on a regular basis.

### 1/5 — Pointless app now (will update to 5stars after fix)

*2026-02-21*

This app is pretty much pointless now. Can’t advance forward from private channels and crashes the second I open the app. It was 4stars but now 1 star. I hope the developer updates soon so I can change my review back.
