Really bad app, lame programming, bad logic, constant hangs, constant security issues, constant hassles, locks account if you don't use it often, says it detected unusual activity on your account and asks for friend's information to unblock your account, but you can't contact your friends because you can't log in, so you have to call them or use another app. Why bother with this app if you have to have another one anyway? I switched to LINE, it works great.

Horrible sign-up experience. I lost my password once, and ended up having to ask friends to ask other friends to pass on a verification request. When I tried to sign up my wife, I used up my "once per month" other-usee verification to verify her, and then when I went to the messages app to get the code they'd sent, the sign-up process logged out. After several days of trying she still has no account. It's just one of the worst apps to use if you're not living in China. Deeply frustrating.

I can not delete my account. I've hardly used the app in any way, and it should not be so hard to delete the account. All the support documents I've seen (in English) give false information. I contacted help support, but the only response is in Chinese, and I can't find a way to translate it in the app (which I've heard is supposed to be a strong feature, and even a primary purpose for me to get the app). I also can't copy/paste to translate elsewhere.

Don't even bother downloading. I had this app for less than a day and it's found "Suspicious activity' on my account and blocked me from accessing the account. I can't recover my account and this was the only way I could get in contact with one of my friends. I am beyond furious, and wish they'd fix this issue, but judging from the other reviews they won't.

The app is usually pretty handy. Other than the occasional wrong translation it works well enough. However, lately my app won't notify me of any new messages. I have checked all the my settings on my phone and everything is set up correctly. It is extremely frustrating to that I have messages and dont see them for hours, until I remember to open up the app and check.
