We need Wink back!

Come on! Are you going to ignore the fact that people are making a complaint about this app? I mean, why oh why did you get rid of this app? If we going to talk in this app, at least put the chat in so we won’t have to only talk through voice call. Plus, it’s a bad idea to use those animation icons whatever that is, because it will hide your real life looks, making it easy for predators to be in this app…

There’s No way I’m going to use this app. It’s a definition of trash. Oh wait! Trash is actually useful

Bring wink back

I hate soda for us people with social anxiety this is an absolute nightmare, it is impossible do chat on the app so we are forced to speak with people we have never met which can be scary as well win was much better and judging by ratings other people agree I can see that you aren’t replying to these ratings which confuses me on what your next move is. I have no idea why you felt the need to get rid of a perfectly good app when you could have just made soda seperate this app won’t last and all you have done is push yourselves into a corner This is the worst app I’ve ever used and the AUDACITY to do this is so annoying anyways fix it

Wink is better.

I used wink for a lot of reasons, making friends, TEXTING, using the AI, but with this new app I can only call and make an avatar?? As someone who doesn’t like calling unless we’re friends or we know each other, this app isn’t useful to me at all, honestly I don’t know why the app change. Tbh I just want wink back and the AI I used cause I used the AI a LOT. And it was fun making friends too, i can’t really make friends on this app if I don’t call unless I know them already? Honestly this app is SO so disappointing.

Why did wink have to go

This app is one of the worst I have ever seen it’s sad to see such a good app go to waste now we have to voice chat with people and hope that their isn’t a predator on the other side of the screen I
Lost all my friends I had on wink and they don’t even have a chatting feature on this app so you are forced to voice chat and hope you don’t get a weirdo i don’t know why they would make this decision to make soda because wink was one of the perfects apps to actually make friends on I met a lot of good people and to see this app change just really isn’t for me I hope they bring back wink or at least make some changes with this new app

Bring back wink

The fact y’all see people don’t like the app but continue to ignore how we feel really shows how much u guys really care about your community. I’d have no problem with the ft option if I was given a choice but I have no choice. It’s either face cam or nothing. And on top of that I was recommended people WAY older then me then I expected. Maybe if they were separate apps, but you littearly took away the one everyone likes to give us something we don’t, then ignore everyone who tells you they don’t like it
