The lack of use of the "back" button is very frustrating. Having to navigate the app like it was designed by an apple user is not good. The overall feel is dry and lacking in character. Top that off with not being able to view any pictures in full screen and you have a bad app. No attempt at any updates to fix these issues either. Just looks like the app has been sent out and just forgotten about.

Thanks for taking the time to share this feedback. I understand that can be frustrating, and I’ve passed your comments on to the product team so they can review both usability and media viewing improvements.

Beloved? Tolerated, maybe. Working with pictures, is pretty bad. Viewing pictures of writing, kids do at school is darn awful. Why can't you launch an image to a lightbox that is fullscreen, rather than trying to peer through a letterbox.

I cannot stand how convoluted the desperate parts of this app are bolted together in a "we never planned any of this out" way. "Messages" are tucked into the top corner and don't even open when clicking thru from a notification. The phone's "back" button doesn't register, allowing the user to go back to the message list after reading. It's difficult to tell who your reply is going to send to and could publicly broadcast to an unintended audience. The app feels like one big afterthought.
