Clunky and asks for permissions it doesn’t need

The app’s user interface is very clunky, especially when trying to view photo albums. It shows individual photo comments on the whole album and things like that.

It also requires permission to read your entire photo library on your phone when you try to save one photo. That is completely unnecessary and suspicious. No thank you.

It’s good but

It’s a good app, however, it takes forever for messages to load.
