Ever since they added the voice message microphone in the same exact position where the send button is and just above where I do voice to text with the same exact icon this app is ridiculously frustrating from accidental presses every time I use it. It also causes breaks in sending messages where things get locked in sending status. There's no way to move it. It asked me if I wanted to try it out but there's no way to disable it. Thanks a lot Google.

I have had this app for a long time. I have had problems with the notification sound not working. It doesn't work, and I am missing all of my chats. I have tried everything! I have uninstalled/ reinstalled, contacted support with no response! There appears to be a glitch in the app! This message is to the developers, please fix your app, and have support response! Right now, I am looking for a better chat app that really works, and I don't miss my chats!

I find most of the app intuitive enough, but it's made largely awkward by "threads". These make the list of conversations hard to look at, and to find the main conversation. And I wind up accidentally replying to threads instead. WhatsApp has a far better solution by simply showing the message you've replied to above the one you sent, without duplicating your chat a bunch of times into separate chat windows. Threads are a poor user experience, and many people have said they should be scrapped.
