### 1/5 — 업데이트가 점점 앱을 이용하기 불편하게끔 되는 거 같아요

*2026-02-16*

오랜만에 깔았더니 채팅을 하기 위해사 수락/거절을 해야되더라구요? 근데 그사람 프로필도 못 들어가는데 수락할지 거절할지 뭘 보고 눌러야되나요? 채팅내용도 안 보이는데? 도대체 이런 시스템은 왜 만든건가요?
일일이 검색창에 닉네임 다 쳐서 어떤 사람인지 본 후에 수락하라는 건지,,, 이 시스템 없애주세요 불편해요 일일이 다 수락한 후에 프로필들어가서 맘에 안 들면 차단해야되는데 왜 이중으로 고생해야되나요 차단 시스템이 있는 한 수락/거절은 진짜 불필요한 거 같은데요

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요. 소중한 의견 남겨주셔서 감사합니다. 저희도 친구 수락 기능이 다소 번거롭게 느껴질 수 있으며, 필수적인 기능은 아니라고 생각하고 있습니다. 다만 애플 앱스토어 정책상 상대방의 동의 없이 바로 채팅이 이루어지는 방식은 승인받기 어려워, 부득이하게 해당 기능을 추가하게 되었습니다. 이용에 불편을 드린 점 진심으로 양해 부탁드리며, 최대한 불편함을 줄일 수 있도록 사용 흐름과 UI를 지속적으로 개선해 나가겠습니다. 앞으로도 더 나은 서비스로 보답하겠습니다. 감사합니다.
