### 1/5 — Не возможно звонить

*2025-10-23, version 7.0.9*

Не проходят звонки

### 5/5 — Предложение по оптимизации

*2025-08-16, version 7.0.9*

Очень нравится приложение, особенно качество связи видео звонков и голосовых звонков! Но хотелось бы попросить ввести дополнительную оптимизацию для iOS! Дело в том что на айфоне, невозможно установить аватарку пользователя, на своем аккаунте, нет никаких настроек в личном кабинете, и нет вариантов темы: черная, белая! Какая тема по умолчанию стоит, такая и будет, а хотелось бы иметь выбор. Хотелось бы установить фотку на аватарку, как на свой аккаунт, так и на контакты собеседников - визуально, это будет выглядеть приятнее и будет смотреться лучше. На андроиде это возможно, а на эппл, почему-то нет! Плюс на андроиде, есть возможность эту фотку отредактировать и уместить в размер аватарки, а на айфоне вообще нет ничего. Так же на айфоне нет возможности синхронизироваться со списком контактов телефона, и нет возможности добавить свой номер телефона, приходится искать собеседников только по никнейму. Было бы удобно иметь разные варианты поиска друзей, как по никнейму, так и по номеру телефона из контактов в телефоне. Еще невозможно из галереи телефона отправлять вотки в приложение, только внутри чата есть возможность отправить фотки. Было бы удобно, если бы была возможность отправить фото/видео, прям из телефона, выбрав в списке приложений - Kedr. В остальном, впечатления от приложения, очень положительные!

### 4/5 — Нормально

*2025-08-14, version 7.0.9*

Звонки проходят, но минус: фото открывается только с VPN. Исправьте пожалуйста

### 1/5 — KEDR

*2025-04-30, version 7.0.8*

Müll

### 5/5 — Большая просьба

*2025-03-28, version 7.0.8*

Сделайте пожалуйста, чтобы после поиска или начала нового чата, не оставались в разделе поиска контакты на которые ты заходил, или же добавьте функцию очистки истории поиска пожалуйста

### 3/5 — Good security, but no “Settings” ?

*2024-10-17, version 7.0.8*

Easy to register, auto delete feature a great plus.  However I can’t find “settings”, therefore unable to add my profile picture.   The profile screen shot says it all.

### 5/5 — hi

*2024-10-16, version 7.0.8*

Please allow me to change the notification settings I want to change my profile picture

### 3/5 — After Update, Many Lost Features

*2024-06-03, version 7.0.1*

After the update, we are missing basic features such as quoting messages and seeing line breaks while typing longer messages. Also, formatting is lost when trying to copy and past messages with line breaks. 

I’m hopeful that future updates will quickly restore these essential features.

### 1/5 — No use

*2024-04-24, version 6.10*

This App is difficult to pass the massages,I try pass the massages to friends need tow weeks then get my massages 😢

### 4/5 — The app is very good.

*2023-11-27, version 6.10*

The app is very simple and uncomplicated, so it's easy to use. It would be better if there were some improvements. 1. On the chat screen, regardless of how long the automatic message deletion time is, I hope it will be arranged as the person who sent and received the most recent message. 2. Sometimes a message cannot be deleted after the set time. 3. I hope there is a function that fixes the person you want to the top in the chat window.  4. The call is often out of reach. It needs to be improved. 
I really like the app. We look forward to your continued updates.
