Запретили всё таки без «волшебной пилюли в виде дяди VPN»…

Было нормально всё, пока не запретили, видимо на платных подписках ВПН деньги делают неплохие!
Жалко походу, чтобы люди переписывались и радовались общению.
Анимированная аватарка, собственный браузер и полностью тема со значком на главном меню Kakao - топ, это то, что выделяет среди многих чатов!
Смайлы и стикеры - 90% платные все, русского языка нету от слова совсем.
В целом, вполне хороший чат, мгновенная отправка сообщений.

Slow and steady wins no race

Unbelievably slow. Every time you upload a photo, you have to wait at least like 3 full minutes for it to load, regardless of how good your connection is, whether you’re on WiFi or data, etc. Generally, messages are slow to load so I genuinely dread opening this app. This app will single-handedly be the reason my diehard Samsung fan parents will have to switch to iPhones next year.

좋음

걍 좋음

최근 업데이트 후 메세지 전송 안됨

캐나다 와이파이로 연결하여 사용시 메세지 및 데이터 사진 등이 전송이 안됩니다. 5G로 연결하거나 VPN으로 네트워크를 변경시 사용이 됩니다.

App Update

This new version of the app looks awful and the ui is extremely slow and the texts are all cramped together. Kakao used to look unique, now I can’t tell it apart from other apps.

TOTAL review

Dear KakaoTalk,

I’m just going to make it easy and clear about what you need to fix, and so that users can read this before getting this app!

1. This is something you guys should fix. PLEASE make posting longer than a minute!

2. This is turning into an instagram ripoff rather than a texting app.

3. As a US user not knowing Korean, but using this app to talk to a friend that moved back to Korea, this app is very hard to use! Almost everything is in Korean, and you guys should have a toggle to translate everything to English!!

4. Too many ads!! Why are there ads EVERYWHERE you look!

5. Every single time you upload a video to your profile, why does it sound so GLITCHY??

6. Quality is worse and there are a bunch of ads!! This is not good looking for the company! If you know what I mean. 😕

7. Emojis are weird..some are questionable.

8. DEVELOPERS, please respond to these reviews!!! How do you guys have time to “update” every day, but never read your customer’s reviews!! It is very enraging and disappointing!!! Unless you are just “updating bugs” but actually updating more ADS!

9. I just checked your update histories, and if you really are updating, it’s just a spam of the same thing!!!

Amazing app

Kakaotalk has been so great! Before, my messaging app was messages, but now that I use this, it is so efficient and perfect! Thank you!

Don’t like new update

New update sucks. Uncomfortable to use. Emoticons are still fire tho 🔥

파일 어렵ㄴ

이번 업데이트로 오히려 pdf 파일 내용을 보기 어렵게 변함.

So so good

So good to see text.

Balright

It was wierd at first because it talked about a safety pass but it was just temporary

It’s a great platform

I love the cheap animations you can buy. They are so cute.

Adding people

It’s just unfair I can’t add people because I don’t have a Korean number. This is a social app. I know it’s an app for Koreans but some international people use it to speak to Koreans.

고마워

고마워 너무쉽게해줘서

유익한 신속한 정보

애써주신 모든분께 감사드리며 - Ppp ch

Umma

Love these for talking to parents

위에 뜨라고 5점임

카톡 업데이트가 너무 과한것 같아요
솔직히 처음엔 펑 기능 없어진다해서 리뷰를 남겼었는데요 요즘은 펑이 다시 생겼더라고요? 몰랐어요 그리고 카톡 그냥 솔직히 진짜 인스타 같아요
원본 돌아오시면 전용기 드리고 걍 노벨상 받으실게요 그니까 돌아와요 잘해드릴게요
글고 관리자,이용자한테 전용기 진짜 2대씩 돌릴게요 그리고 업뎃 버전 원본버전 선택 가능한거면 진짜 걍 모든 분에게 순금 한덩어리씩 드림 ㅜㅜ

5점준이유

도대체 왜그러시는건가요 카톡 메신저 앱이라면서 왜 숏폼을 추가하셨죠?
그리고 관심도 없는 프로필 사진 박제해서 좋아요 버튼 만들면 뭐 사람들이 인스타 유튜브 안쓸거로 아시나봐요 근데 애초에 학생들은 유튜브 인스타 공부때문에 카톡만 쓰는것도 있고 이상한 게시물에 좋아요 누르면 바로 학폭으로 연류되는거 모르시지 않잖아요 진짜 이유를 설명을 해주시든가 아니면 원래대로 돌려주시든가 하세요 쓰는사람 많다고 업데이트 막해도 되는거 아니에요
그리고 게시물에 댓글이나 좋아요 기능을 만드실거면 왜 부적절하다고 못 올리게 하는거죠? 차라리 이런 기능 자잘한거만 없애도 몇명은 다시 쓸거같은데 지금 카카오에 있는 사람들 다 그냥 대단한 사람들 한명도 없어요 그렇다고 업데이트 못하실만한 분들도 아닌데 약을 드신건지 뭔지 왜그러는지 이해가 안되네요 쌰갈
