The next day after that until now it has been acting up. I’m not getting responses sent to me, the person I’m writing not getting my responses . So we both have to check and see what time the last messages we received was to make sure we’re not missing anything and then retyping the missed messages. Do better .! ### 1/5 — Horrible Service *2026-07-20, version 2.7* The app has constant connection issues, does not receive all messages, there’s no customer support , and there’s no response when sending in a ticket for a issue I wish they would switch back to the old company this one sucks ### 1/5 — This App Sucks *2026-07-12, version 2.7* If I could give 0 stars I would I logged out and now it won’t let me log back in stated I have to many devices on my account which is not true I have spent too much money not to be able to connect with my loved one, the support doesn’t work no phone number and redownloading the app doesn’t help don’t waste your money ### 1/5 — A rip off!! *2026-07-08, version 2.7* They are stealing money by not sending messages to inmates as well as blocking some of the messages they send as well!!

I’m not sure how to get that taken care of due to the fact I can’t get in contact with support to resolve my issue.
