DON’T DOWNLOAD THIS. I already reported it to Apple. ### 1/5 — Crap *2021-03-14, version 1.2.34* You And whoever you’re wanting to talk to you in secret both have to have this app you can’t load previous messages from your phone to it I literally download it and I am now deleting don’t waste your time I was loading this for a secret friend to get the pictures and text messages saved onto my phone and not have to always delete it but that’s not going to happen with this app:( ### 5/5 — Glitching *2024-04-04* Is glitching, can’t message and other party can’t message also for many months now, let the engineers work on it because is a wonderful app ### 5/5 — Challenging *2024-03-22* I registered this app and added my friend but can’t text or receive messages and don’t know why please look into this matter ### 5/5 — Capital!!! *2022-09-05, version 1.2.54* Love it! Now just make so you can put a specific ringtone to a specific contact. 🙂 ### 5/5 — My Initial Assessment: A+ *2021-12-11, version 1.2.49* I downloaded this app yesterday. That said, as a former Civil-libertarian, my assessment of it would consist of an A+. However, my eyes are wide open to any & all propensities to stray from said dedication to freedom in favor of Authoritarianism. ### 5/5 — Best darn app!!!!! *2020-10-08, version 1.2.29* I put my parents on this app so I can text And call/video call but one problem when I call it doesn’t go on the phone you have to be on the app to receive the call 😩but 😃I still love this app I don’t have phone service so I can’t call or text.💬 ### 5/5 — Excellent! *2020-07-17, version 1.2.29* This app does a fantastic job!
