★★★★★ Khawar Khawar · Apr 4, 2026
Khazar Khazars the edit icon to pin, add or delete clips. Touch and hold a clip to pin it. Unpinned clips will be deleted after 1 hour.
★☆☆☆☆ Don Frenette · Mar 20, 2026
Worst message app ever will get professionals to install à better one I'm too old for this junk.
★★☆☆☆ Tane Payne · Mar 26, 2026
Can't retrieve accidental deleted messages
★☆☆☆☆ NYRican For LIFE · Apr 20, 2026
HORRIBLE!! It's ANNOYING THAT IT DOESN'T HAVE THE FEATURES OF A REGULAR TEXTING. THE ADS ARE ANNOYING AS WELL.
★☆☆☆☆ Javier Bruno (Derp) · May 8, 2026
Not a Samsung app, despite them copying the icon, and Google helped them with this scam by hiding the publisher. Thanks, Google!
