## Most critical reviews (8 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Looks nice, doesn’t work

*2026-05-23*

I have multiple hosts running a variety of Reticulum applications, rnds , nomadnet, and reticulum-meshchat. Once or twice I got chats working between Retichat and nomadnet. Reticulum-meshchat can see the Retichat node and chats are shown as delivered. On Retichat no nodes appear and no chats are received. I wish it would just work. After 2 days of tweaking configs, I am moving to Sideband on Android.

### 1/5 — Странное приложение

*2026-05-02*

Не работает. Не отправляет и не получает сообщение ни по tcp, ни по lora. Нет кнопки анонса

### 2/5 — App really isn’t that bad but very limited

*2026-05-12*

As far as the app alone is concerned, it works well enough but is missing core functionality like rnodes. Unfortunately reticulum itself is a cesspool and dying.

### 3/5 — Works Partially

*2026-08-08*

I am happy that a Reticulum client exists for the iPhone!

I am experiencing messages being sent ok—but, not received. 

I feel this app needs three core things:

1. A force Sync or Send/Receive button
2. Sync logging
3. Identity Management

### 3/5 — problems

*2026-05-01*

online, send but not recieve…

### 4/5 — Works well

*2026-06-19*

Works well but sadly it doesn’t appear to run in the background correctly so I cannot receive messages unless it is open

### 5/5 — First of its kind

*2026-05-21*

First iOS Reticulum chat program, good job!

### 5/5 — Не плохо 😏

*2026-05-05*

Сообщения отправляются, но иногда теряются. Тестирую с сайдбендом на андроиде (rnode). Статус сообщения указывает с красным крестом, хотя сообщение доставлено, это происходит часто, но не всегда. 
На iOS приложения засыпают и связь с Rnode пропадает.
Настроек и гибкости приложения в целом мало. Рад что появилось на iOS. Надеюсь проект будет развиваться. Спасибо.
