November 13, 2020

Dear users of Bright Guide, we have released an update, in which not only new useful options have appeared, but also some changes have been made to make the application more convenient to use: — Added option "Mark chat as read"; — Added option "Add to favourites"; — Added automatic playback of voice notes; — Added the ability to send a voice note by a double tap in the message list; — Changed the logic of the voice notes: now the recording begins immediately after opening this screen. We hope that you will appreciate these updates and that the use of the application will become more comfortable for you. Thank you for using Bright Guide!

Work better

Please Fix to be able to lag in with my phone number. It says incorrect phone number. And also update the app or remove it from App Store. Is not fair that android telegram app is better then iOS. Come on you Guys can do better then that. Please work better in this app. And all the other telegram apps for iOS.

Accessible But

This app is nicely accessible, but I've had trouble finding contacts and I've experienced other bugs. Plus, this app has not been updated in a long time! I don't trust apps that are not updated regularly. You need to update the app occasionally to make sure it is secure and that new features are occasionally added. I like to know that the developer has time for the app and still cares about it. I know it's hard for independent developers. However, I don't like to be disappointed. Especially if I've paid for an app or for access to all of its features. i’m adding to my review because I am frustrated with this app. If you don’t have time for the app, please just pull it from the App Store. You’re not doing blind people any favors by never updating the app. We are well into iOS 17 and about to see iOS 18 soon. again, update the app or just pull it from the App Store.
