I don’t know why

This app is a good app but when I went on i wouldn’t work and I hope see his because I got some important stuff on there

super great and awesome

i use this app to text and call my family and its REALLY useful!

Why won’t it let me send messages to certain people?

So I love the messages app and I use it to text everyone, but there are some people who even if it’s iMessages or SMS it’s still not letting me send my messages. It’s going straight to not delivered and when I press try again it doesn’t work and it’s only a couple people and it’s like I can’t send a message or call them at all and it’s really annoying.

Good

Messages are awesome. But the reason why I give this app a 3 star is because sometimes it tells me that my messages to someone did not deliver and sometime for my phone it just goes straight to SMS.

Meeeeeeh

It is quite good it is easy to add people and you can change the backround and stuff cool letters yeah! It is just that why do you have to costomize the other persons profile pic does not make sense

Very good

Easy to use very good

So bad

I’m not able to text and all my friends can So you guys should fix this bug And then I’m going back to the app

is still not working
26.5 iOS recent update when I deleted messages and start anew it is not showing even when I set and TRIED EVERY METHOD IN SETTINGS TO FIX
as well as POWER OFF AND WAIT 15 minutes and turned back on😡
TRILLIONS 👎
After 3 iOS versions updates this was NEVER FIXED😤😖 I AM NOT USING AGAIN UNTIL FIXED!
I removed on SETTINGS and
I will check next iOS version!

July 2026 before 26.6 iOS update it worked excellent but after I AM VEXED BECAUSE IT NO LONGER WORKS!

If it was POSSIBLE TO UNINSTALL AND THEN REINSTALL MAYBE THAT WOULD HAVE FIXED IT LIKE iOS 13 back in the day FOR ALL APPLE APPS!

Meh

It does the job I just wish there were more features

Every time I try to type something 2 seconds later, there is always this red exclamation mark next to the message. Why can’t I delete this app 😭😭😭

It’s good

It’s a good way to talk to people it’s nice to be able to communicate with people without having to talk directly so if your family is in Italy than you can FaceTime or call and text without spending money on plane tickets or having to drive and pay a lot of money on gas and food. Overall, it’s a good way to communicate to people without having to take a long drive. Leave work or wherever you were.Lokie gonna give it five stars

Hey Apple?

Amazing but like can you make it so that we can turn off ppl being able to see when we’ve read their text messages? This would help my awkwardness so much!

Just one thing… 😁

Probs the app I use the most. I’ve been connecting with my friends everyday!!! I’d just like that u can create folders for contacts u can open! Example: Family. Or maybe Friends. Just to make my life better!

Apple apps

Really good for messaging. The only thing is that they can’t communicate with Samsung or google pixel. Other than that it’s a fire app.

I give 5 stars because

People keep texting me zesty stuff whats that abt lol

So bad

I’m not able to text and all my friends can
So you guys should fix this bug
And then I’m going back to the app

it’s amazing until youre texting an android. specifically in group chats

... (゜-゜) ʷʰʸ

yes, it is good. You can text your friends but lately I’ve been getting random messages for some reason so I had to delete them all the time yes and why do we have to make the video shorter? It was just fine until now. I was about to post a video to my cousins and then boom. I only had a seven minute video and I just wanted to show it to them and then I had to make it shorter why? Why.
