### 5/5 — A Gem indeed

*2025-05-07*

This app comes in handy once you wanna make a momo payment. My iPhone buddies know this 😂

### 5/5 — Stops working properly when 2 SIMs are in the phone

*2025-03-14*

I downloaded that app when I used to only use MTN, and it was working well, but when I put a 2nd SIM card, an error message would show “null”. I’m thinking about deleting it

**Developer response:** Thank you for letting us know about this issue! The “null” error can sometimes appear if your device’s default voice line changes (for example when adding a 2nd SIM). Please open your phone settings and select MTN as the default voice in Settings > Cellular > Default Voice Line. This usually resolves the error right away. If you still have trouble after trying that, feel free to reach out to our support team at +250 796 150 367—we’re here to help!

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.6.5 — 2026-07-31

Some of you were getting signed out for no reason, or left staring at an app that quietly refused to load anything. Turns out we'd been clinging to an expired pass and presenting it at the door over and over, hoping for a different answer each time. We now hang on to the new one before letting go of the old. Your session should stay exactly where you left it.

### 1.6.4 — 2026-07-24

We've been busy behind the scenes (and in front of them too):
- That crash, actually squashed this time - Last update we told you we'd fixed the recipient list crash. It had a cousin. The cousin has now been dealt with too.
- Merchant code, or phone number? - Type a merchant code that looks suspiciously like a phone number and we'll give you a heads-up before you send. Better a small question now than a payment to the wrong place later.
- Transactions that know when to quit - Payments that could never sync used to retry forever in the background. They now know when to stop politely.
- The Usual Suspects - Some behind-the-scenes tweaks to notifications and to how we confirm your transactions.

Thanks for using Faranga - keep sending, keep saving!

### 1.6.3 — 2026-07-21

Squashed a pesky bug that made the app crash when picking a recipient with duplicate contacts showing up. Your contact list is now well-behaved and crash-free!

### 1.6.2 — 2026-07-20

- Onboarding now remembers where you left off, even if you background the app mid-setup. No more starting from scratch!
- Shortcut Renamed "Process SMS" to "Process Carrier SMS" for extra clarity.
- Some behind-the-scenes tweaks to how we verify transactions, making things smoother and more reliable.

Thanks for using Faranga - keep the feedback coming!

### 1.6.0 — 2026-07-17

We've been busy behind the scenes (and in front of them too):
- Bank details, now with receipts - See the bank name AND logo right on your transaction details. No more guessing who sent you money.
- Copy that number - Tap to copy a phone number straight from your transactions. Your thumbs will thank you.
- Smarter contacts - Nameless contacts now sort to the bottom, so your real friends show up first.
- Quieter weekly reports - No more "You spent 0 RWF this week!" reports when you didn't spend anything. We know. You know. Let's move on.
- Squashed some bugs - Fixed a flicker when switching years in your stats, smoothed out the recipient selector, and cleaned up phone number masking on incoming transactions.
- Extra security - Added more protection under the hood to keep your OTPs and transactions safe.
Thanks for using Faranga - keep sending, keep saving!
