Good game but has intermittent issues

I like the game! But am intermittently needing to uninstall and reinstall it. I am not sure how to report this outside of leaving a review. The website doesn’t have a place to report bugs.

Not working on ios 26.5 iPhone 15 pro

Love the game but I have to play from my iPad. If I try to play a return move on my iPhone 15 ios 26.5 it just flash and loses the app. Works fine from my iPad on 26.5.1. FYI 26.5.1 is not available for the iPhone 15 pro. Current level is 26.5.

It’s meant for messages why can’t I play

Every time one of my friends tries to send one of the iMessage words for iMessage game it’s always sent through but whenever I try to click on it, it doesn’t work I don’t know if this is just what happens on iPads or if it happens on phones and iPads, but please update this game. It really needs it.

DOESN’T WORK AT ALL

CAN OPEN IT, PLAY, SEND IT, RECEIVER CAN’T OPEN IT TO PLAY….OR LIKE TONIGHT, I COULD OPEN IT, PUT A WORD IN AND HIT SEND AND A WHITE SCREEN APPEARS AND JUST SITS THERE.

THIS IS A MAJOR WASTE OF TIME.

Great concept, but tons of bugs

I used to play this with my mom all the time and we occasionally had issues but now it’s completely not opening or giving a gray pop up screen. Just a really bad app now, not sure how it got worse.
