Love it but apps can be glitchy

Apps can be glitchy at times. Insta is probably the worst. But other than that I am happy with the app and I have deleted all socials and primarily going through this.

Terrible

This app works terribly and cuts off many features. It is also terribly made and I would recommend getting a different app

Everything is subscription locked

The entire reason I got this app was to be able to text my friends and watch things they have sent me without having to worry about getting distracted, but that simple feature is subscription locked. Not to mention you can’t block YouTube shorts, X feed, Insta feed, TikTok, literally everything you would get this app for. If they weren’t so greedy this would instantly be a five star
