QQ is simply the worst messaging app I've ever seen. I've tried WeChat, Snapchat, and WhatsApp, and honestly, even Google Classroom is better. First of all, it only accepts Chinese phone numbers. Does that mean we foreigners are doomed? What's the point of designing multiple language options? You can choose other countries but reject phone numbers from other countries? I seriously suspect this is racial discrimination and severe xenophobia. I bought an account, and overall, the experience was terrible. First, there's the issue of overheating. During use, my battery drained by at least 30%, and my phone and MacBook got extremely hot. I'm using an iPhone 14, but it doesn't get that hot. Honestly, it consumes more power and causes more heat than playing a demanding game on Roblox. Second, it only supports Chinese. Since QQ supports foreigners, why doesn't it offer any other languages besides Chinese, not even English? I understand it's a Chinese messaging app, but you could choose not to release it in any other country instead of being so disgusting and greedy. Why go to such lengths just to increase traffic and downloads? Thirdly, what confuses me most is why I'm inexplicably restricted when using it, such as being muted, just because I'm a foreigner? If it's racial discrimination, just say so directly; there's no need for this underhanded method. Overall, it's a terrible messaging app. It seems only Chinese people can use QQ. Difficulty of use: 10/10; Ease of use: 1/10; Foreign user experience: -10/10; Firewall: 1/10. In short, I do not recommend any company or individual download or use this app in any form.
