*2026-05-12, version 1.6*

Absolutely horrible. Doesn’t work at all no matter what I did. Just kept saying I wasn’t logged in. Garbage. Apple needs to remove this from their App Store. It’s 🗑️

### 1/5 — WatchMessage

Not impressed why can’t I get it to work?

### 1/5 — If I could give it zero stars, I would

*2026-04-04, version 1.6*

Tried for 35 minutes to get logged in and kept telling me to check my phone app wouldn’t work I’d login. I even downloaded Google Chrome to login and it didn’t. Connect to the watch.

### 1/5 — Useless don’t bother

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-03-03, version 1.6*

Don’t bother

### 1/5 — No response to why it won’t work for me

*2026-01-28*

Supposedly the developer is “quick to respond to emails” yet I haven’t received ONE response to any of my emails. I’m really trying to give these apps a chance because I need Messenger on my watch. But if I can’t get help I’ll just delete.
