Great when it works. We pay for premium, but I'm constantly closing the app, clearing the cache, uninstalling and reinstalling to get things to work. Sometimes I get a response telling me my last message's audio was garbled and that message was completely unintelligible. Great way to keep in touch with friends, but I'm frustrated with it every day.

Great App but Glitches. MP is a great way to chat with my friends. My biggest issue is it glitches a lot. It use to not glitch. But now it will replay videos over and over again like a loop and won't allow me to respond. I have to completely close the app and reopen it in order to respond. That defeats the purpose of the convenience of the app. I have an Android so maybe that's the issue. My friend has an iPhone and doesn't experience this. Please fix!!!!

Super terrible frame rate, especially where data bandwidth is limited or congested (like in downtow of a big city... like New York or Chicago...) If the point is to record a video message and send it asynchronously, why doesn't the app record with decent quality and then send finished recording when bandwidth allows? Switched to using the video message feature of Google Meet with much better results.
