Keep this alive!!

I love this app, hope the dev will keep it alive for future devices and iOS versions!

Great app, having trouble connecting to nearby users

Might need an update after some time

It’s a great app

“The app installs fine, but some features don’t work on my device. The subscription button doesn’t respond at all, and the app doesn’t show my device name correctly—it only displays ‘iPhone’ instead of the name I set. It might work better on some phones, but on mine the main features don’t function.”

Great app but needs one improvement for five stars

I love this app. It works excellent in situations where you’re near someone but can’t use cell service or WiFi to communicate. The one downside is that the text displays backwards, with the most recent text appearing at the TOP rather than at the bottom like in all other messaging apps. Please please make an option where the text displays in chronological order with the most recent texts at the very bottom. This would make the app a lot easier to use.

Thank you so much for creating such a good app!

Great app but not perfect

It works really well but seems to struggle with different iOS versions. We have two iPhone 5s phones that find each other and can text. My iPhone 15 doesn’t find any of them.

Good app

This is what I was looking for. An app that I can message people I’m with when we have no WiFi or cell signal. I’d like to see low quality photos sending as a future feature. I would be great not to have the giant picture of the person your messaging with if they use a picture. The top down messaging is a little weird being use to iPhone messaging going bottom up but that’s fine.

Comodissima

App comodissima per parlare e chattare sull’aereo quando si è seduti lontani e in altre situazioni in cui non c’è campo. Dovrebbe essere di default su tutti i telefoni così da creare una mesh molto ampia.

Nice, but need some bug fixes

The app is very simple and easy to use, BUT there is one problem in iOS 17.
When you long-tap on a message, for example if it wasn’t delivered and you want to resend it, the app crashes.
If the bug is gone, the app will be 5 ⭐️

Molto buono

Applicazione ottima per chattare in aereo, sarebbe fantastico se si potessero anche inviare immagini

What an amazing app!

I have an admission: I hate talking on the airplane. It’s loud, everyone can hear my wife and I talking, and I get motion sick from constantly turning my head. Maybe these are first world problems, but Berkanan solves it with this awesome app. Now my wife and I can chat about trip details without a bunch of strangers listening, and we don’t have to pay for wifi to do so. It makes calls too. It works flawlessly. There’s a learning curve since the new messages appear at the top rather than the bottom, but otherwise I love this app!

Annoying message order

The app works great but why did you chose to display the most recent messages at the top?
Please at least add a setting to restore the "normal" order that we are used to have in EVERY other messaging app.

It doesn’t work

I can’t get this app to work.

Love it. Only one suggestion

This app does exactly what I hoped! My only wish is that it’d put most recent messages on the bottom, like the text app. If I could set it up to format like the text app, with most recent message at the bottom, I’d give it a full 5 stars. No reason to have it reversed, in my opinion 🤷🏼‍♂️

Does it work on Airplanes?

Does this app work on airplanes?

Absolutely amazing, one suggestion.

This is the absolute perfect app for bluetooth messaging!! I would definitely recommend this to basically anyone! This will come in handy for times without a stable connection. One suggestion though, add groups. Someone in the group can invite another person, other people can't see it at all. Would be super useful. Thanks!

10/10

Finally, a good Bluetooth chatting app.

Placing phone call issue

Great little program. Phone receiver icon does not place call when I click on it. Do phone calls only work ‘to’ premium subscribers??? If not, I’m overlooking a setting.

This app is awesome!

This app is awesome in a future update i would like to get private groups please. Really good job to the developer.

Works great but can’t make the phone call work

Yes this a great app and perfect for when you have no coverage. However I cannot get the phone call option to work. When I select another user and click the phone call icon it rings once and hangs up before the person has a chance to answer it. Also even though I have all notifications turned on it only seems to badge the app for a new message instead of displaying as a persistent notification on the screen like iMessage would. I have persistent notifications turned on for Berkanan. Otherwise 5 star.

Call button not working

I am using iPhone XS Max and the call button is grey so I can’t click on it. But i can call my phone from my ipad.
