I have loved Marco Polo very much, especially the seconds option!
The app used to work well but now not so much, it does not notify you when there’s a message and then over notifies you when it is not a message, it is constantly crashing. It’s just not a good app anymore.
I want to start by saying I love this app- when it is working. Recently there have been a lot of issues with lagging/shutting out of the app in middle of a recording. Please fix this so my friends and I don't need to find another way of communicating on the daily :)
My friends and I use Marco Polo to talk and stay connected everyday. We love to use this app, lately it has been kicking us off mid conversation. While I’m talking or while someone else is talking. It’s happening to all of our phones. I’d really appreciate if the bugs would get fixed!!!!

My family introduced me to this app and I love the app because all of us are spreading abroad in a certain way not really too far but I love it because we are able to talk and everything so this is the app to get
Love this app Soooooooo awesome
The only thing that would make this app better would be a screen on screen option so I can see my loved ones expressions while I’m handling other business on my phone
Super easy to communicate with my friends and my family I love this app so much. I think it’s so much fun to see what my friends are up to without having to text spam like spam texting them all the time I recommend like 10 out of 10.
This app was really cool until they made you pay for everything.
I do NOT like the latest upgrade that prevents me from seeing the full size video but instead gives me a written transcript - even after I changed my settings to stop that from happening! I won’t buy an upgrade version of the app
Ok so I used to live in cali now I live somewhere else and since I had friends in cali I couldn’t really talk to them but once I got this app we now always talk it’s amazing and so fun why don’t you try it out for your self too!
Love the app but it keeps kicking me out of recording and says there’s an error. Have updated the app. Deleted and reinstalled and still does it.
So much functionality hidden behind a paywall. And boy is that paywall high at over $10/month for something as simple as video sending. I would switch to simply texting videos to my friends long before I’d pay $100+ per year to send Marco Polos.
Does anyone know how to delete a second off Marco polo?
Cool
This app is so much fun! You can talk to people While doing everyday tasks, such as dishes, or getting ready for the day stuff like that. The filters on this are so fun! You could do different voice filters or different colored filter filters, and you can draw on the screen and text on the screen. If you can’t connect with loved ones over text, or call them I definitely recommend Marco Polo. You can also send something called seconds to people where you take a picture of what you’re doing in the moment and it sends it to either everyone in your contact, or who you choose to send it to. this app is so much fun for connecting! I definitely recommend this app!
