### 2/5 — Can’t see messages

*2026-06-29, version 5.0.6*

This update was silly, you can’t even write long messages anymore. Stop vibe coding updates

### 2/5 — 2026

*2026-06-29, version 5.0.6*

Somehow, inexplicably after the negative feedback, it is now worse

### 1/5 — It’s getting worse and worse

*2026-06-26, version 5.0.5*

It’s totally subpar compared to the web service. You can insert an article without it being part of its own message. The text field to reply now only shows one line with no ways to see what you’re typing beyond.

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2026-06-26, version 5.0.5*

Can’t open it it keeps crashing

### 1/5 — Useless since the latest update.

*2026-06-26, version 5.0.5*

Since the last update, the app has become completely unusable.

It is no longer possible to write multi-line responses. Halfway through typing a message, it simply disappears. It is also impossible to send any pictures at all.

Intercom is not cheap by any means, and this app is lacking the most basic functionality. At this point, you might as well scrap the codebase, give Opus 4.8 your API docs, and pray for the best. It would almost certainly be better than whatever this misery is.

I have now resorted to using your web app on mobile, which is also incredibly buggy on the phone.

### 1/5 — Full off bugs

*2026-06-26, version 5.0.5*

The new update is full of bugs and is unusable. App keeps crashing, typing messages keep getting deleted and won’t expand when typing (single line only)

### 1/5 — Surprisingly bad and now, worse!

*2026-06-25, version 5.0.5*

Giving this one star only because zero isn’t an option. App has always been underwhelming but now it’s literally unusable. Crashing on iPhone and the Intercom AI agent literally suggested that I write code into the app to enable error logging (Um, it’s YOUR app)

### 1/5 — Can’t even fix the basics

*2026-06-25, version 5.0.5*

This company needs to get back to basics and fix its mobile app. It keeps crashing, no matter how many updates they publish. God forbid what happens when they sell to Salesforce. Time for a vibecoded bespoke tool me thinks

### 1/5 — App finally gets an update and it’s somehow worse

*2026-06-25, version 5.0.5*

The app was finally updated, and now images don’t show in conversations. This app needs a complete overhaul to match the UI of the web app. It’s unusable as a mobile app

### 1/5 — Unable to respond on a ticket

*2026-06-24, version 5.0.4*

Tried to respond to a customer on a conversation, and could only view the first line of my own text. Am unable to scroll down or use my space bar or finger to move the cursor to see if I’m even still typing to edit. I can’t scroll up at all. I can’t see if it even continued my typing past the first line. 

This is absolutely useless for other than viewing tickets.

Please correct this bug, so that the text moves up while I type and allows the responder to actually view what they’re typing.

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2026-06-24, version 5.0.4*

Constantly crashing. Can’t open. Was working before update

### 1/5 — Wird immer schlimmer die App

*2026-06-23, version 5.0.4*

Mit der Übernahme durch Salesforce erwarte ich auch gar nichts mehr. Die App hat mich die letzten 4-5 Jahre mobil halbwegs den Support machen lassen, wenn ich nicht am Rechner war. 
Aber jenseits von comfort und Service. War „ok“. 
Jetzt war ganz übel und nach und nach wird wieder korrigiert wie man am Verlauf der Updates sieht. 

Einfaches Management von Outbounding/Knowledgebaseartikel sind unmöglich über die App. Das sollten Basic sein, die auch hier über die App verfügbar gemacht werden sollten.

### 1/5 — Too expensive

*2026-06-21, version 5.0.3*

Costs way too much to use and the app is not very useful at all. 

Can’t even open images and zoom in on the new version 5.  Ruin the app even more.

### 1/5 — They messed it up!

*2026-06-20, version 5.0.3*

It was an ok app, but after the latest update it became unusable - absolute AI slop.

### 1/5 — Can’t even login app crashes

*2026-06-19, version 5.0.2*

As soon as you log into the account, the app keeps crashing. Unacceptable company that big.

### 3/5 — Update issue

*2026-06-18, version 5.0.1*

Guys, the app is really bugging A LOT after this last release. Even when the agent is set to “away” it continues to get notifications, I even log off and was still getting notifications out of nowhere. The assignments are not clear, it mix the assign to me and all chats, so please take a look 😮‍💨

### 1/5 — Glitches

*2026-06-18, version 5.0.1*

New update have brought up lots of glitches instead of improvements.
Conversation counts does not refreshes by itself. Takes a long time.
Many other app experience has worsen. Please fix asap.

### 1/5 — Lousy app

*2026-06-17, version 5.0.1*

Not updating real time. Need to refresh to update chats. Agent name not showing. Other features not working

### 1/5 — Can’t even see attachments

*2026-06-17, version 5.0.1*

Neglected app with limited features

### 2/5 — Update screwed chat names up

*2026-06-17, version 5.0.1*

After yesterday an today updates.  IOS users cant see whom is chatting.  Chat names  have disappeared. Please address this issue

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-09-01, version 5.0.17*

We use it as an enterprise. The UI is so bad… swipe doesn’t work….

### 1/5 — Bugs everywhere

*2026-08-27, version 5.0.15*

Such a buggy app. Either crashes or slow to load

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-08-17, version 5.0.13*

For all the advancements in their web app, they have totally neglected the app. It works like a buggy app that won’t open from early 2012. Rubbish.

### 1/5 — It CAN get worse.

*2026-07-10, version 5.0.8*

The app has never been great, but here we are halfway through 2026 and carrier pigeons would be more reliable than Intercom’s app. It is infuriating that the app is decades behind the web version. For the love of customer service please give the people what we are asking for (and deserve).

### 1/5 — Blurry Transitions When Scrolling Through Different Sections

*2026-07-08, version 5.0.8*

The app still becomes noticeably blurry when navigating between different panels, which makes it feel unpolished and frustrating to use. The issue was temporarily improved at one point, but it was never fully resolved. I also contacted the support team, but even after the 5.0.8 update, the problem persists.

The version before the Liquid Glass redesign provided a much smoother and more consistent experience. I hope the team prioritizes fixing these UI issues and brings the app in line with the latest iOS design standards.

### 1/5 — Typing box

*2026-07-05, version 5.0.7*

The typing box does not let you see what you are typing

### 1/5 — Not a Business Grade App

*2026-07-02, version 5.0.7*

Constantly buggy with each release. Makes using the application difficult. The company has poor software development standards and doesn’t care about their Users.

### 1/5 — Roto

*2026-06-30, version 5.0.7*

Está rota la barra de texto para mandar mensajes no es responsive para 16 pro Max

### 1/5 — Getting worse over time

*2026-06-30, version 5.0.7*

Being able to quickly respond to customers when mobile is extremely important, but this app seems to be in a development death spiral. It’s gotten so bad that I can’t reliably do basic things like draft a response that has more than one line. Randomly crashes on start up. Etc., I hope intercom gets this app back in shape before I move my business to another less expensive service.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-06-30, version 5.0.7*

It seemed like things couldn't get any worse, but after the latest update, the app has become unusable: the text input field doesn't display anything beyond the first line, messages won't send, you can't copy the information you need from the dialogs, and you have to refresh the page to see new dialogs. On the plus side, they added a dark theme.

### 5/5 — Acessibilidade para trabalhar em diferentes locais!

*2025-04-09, version 4.7.3*

App bem desenvolvido, parabéns aos desenvolvedores!

### 5/5 — Great companion to the web app

*2025-01-15, version 4.7.3*

This is a great way for our team to get notified of new chats without needing to be at their computer.

### 5/5 — Very handy with conversations

*2024-08-29, version 4.7.2*

I have been using the app for 2 years now and it’s been great to manage conversations. Works as intended and the notifications are verrry helpful

### 5/5 — Can’t even log in, fixed next day

*2024-07-05, version 4.7.1*

It’s fixed the next day.

Original: Logging in with email and password works in browser, but the same operation in the app never sent me any verification email.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2023-11-26, version 4.5.1*

I love being able to login and respond on the go when I don’t have my computer nearby. Though are a few bugs, but nothing that interferes with being able to help people.

### 5/5 — Çok başarılı ve…

*2021-08-21, version 3.9.0*

Bazı cahiller üyelik ve email girişi istiyor diye 1 yıldız vermiş. Bu zaten kurumsal bir uygulama. Önce websitesinden paralı üye olmanız lazım, bu uygulama ile mevcut hesaba girip müşteri destek hizmeti verebilirsiniz.

### 5/5 — Çok Başarılı

*2020-07-19, version 3.5.6*

Bence dünyanın en iyi yazılımı iyiki varsın Intercom

### 5/5 — Good pocket replacement for the web app

*2020-03-05, version 3.5.0*

I'm a fan; works well.

### 5/5 — Si funciona

*2019-10-29, version 3.4.0*

Y bien

### 5/5 — Comprehensive

*2019-09-20, version 3.4.0*

Works well. Overall it is a pretty comprehensive app
