I've been using this app for years but as of the last few updates, things have gone down hill. An ad tab has been placed in locations where I frequently tap which is the top right corner and now on the right side where the "send" button is. In those areas you can easily press the ad tab and not what you Intended to press. Once the ad is open, you have to press back twice. Having to deal with this for a month has been really annoying. Uninstall.
Reviews for GO SMS Pro - Messenger, Free T
← Back to GO SMS Pro - Messenger, Free TVery disappointed in this latest update. My notification settings are null and void no matter how many times I verify and or change them. All my settings for font, background etc had disappeared and I have to do it again and it still is picky. I get a drop notification and my notification badges don't work on the app button. It vibrates when I get a text and annoyingly, when I send a text and I can't turn it off. And when going into a message I am noticing that after I will text a reply, I have to get out of it completely because the send button isn't "activated" to actually send anything. Very frustrating after I had enjoyed it for a few years. I might have to look into another app until/if they fix it. 😕
Used to love app. Now almost unusable! Many issues. For several months, it freezes up constantly. I have to close and reopen. I lose everything that I've already entered into the text, it's infuriating. I'm in an active group text with 3 other people. I am no longer able to even enter text to respond if somebody else in the group is texting at the same time. The conversation is usually over before I can even get a text reply sent. Can't respond to pop ups, sender name disappears.
This app claimed to give me a "3 day free trial," for a year's subscription; but within 10 minutes, I didn't want to use it. What followed was an inability to cancel that three day trial due to there being no real way to do this. There is no option on the app, nor is there any on the website. At last, I waited until they charged me through google so that I could request my refund in the 3 day grace period, but low and behold, the "subscription," does not appear on the Google Play's App. 🥵😱
I've emailed them many times asking them to help me fix the issue of not having the same fonts as they appear in the themes. I also had all my messages disappear even though I did a backup. I even have trouble with my themes disappearing, and I pay for these yearly subscriptions, too. Then, it tells me I need to pay again, despite I already paid it. Now ,this is all on the SAME account/email. It is unfair that they don't help u. Instead, they post feedback here only telling you what u alr
Their response is we'll take this into consideration. No comment made on ALREADY buying the app and themes! I hope no one purchases this app!!!! So I used to have this app as you can see. I deleted it and just downloaded it again. It told me welcome back but now I have to pay 50 something dollars for ad free when I had already paid for this to be add free. Is this for real? I might just delete it once again. I lost all the themes I had paid for as well.
I've used this for as long as I've had a smart phone. But your piece of vrsp sidebar is going too far. No matter how many times I disable it, it always comes back immediately. Also you've oh-so-sneakily placed your ads where we click to see the newest messages, that plus the delay, how many times do people get manipulated into clicking ads. The worst part is I bought your next Launcher and I still have to pay again to avoid the ads on sms.
I've had this app for years and even got the "pro" version because it was such a satisfactory alternative to the stock app... However, it's gotten worse and worse over time, even giving me ads when i paid to have none. Now it's decided to stop working all together, even after months of other poor reviews from customers. Not to mention the security issues they've had. I'm beyond done.
Used to be a preety decent app, but it frequently doesn't recognize my subscription, and ads pop up constantly. I'm already paying for it. Most of the Android users in my unit (I'm military) use this, and a lot of us have this issue. I don't have the time to code my own app, but I do have the time to get everyone to cancel their subscriptions if this doesn't get fixed. Contact me for more details.
When you get a message, a box pops up and you can respond from it. That doesn't work, at all. You can type your message but it will not send. You have to close it, and opened the message app itself to send the message. It constantly pushes for you to purchase their very expensive membership, thatz absolutely not worth it. They want $10 a month or $60 a year. They should just charge $5-$10 for the app itself and be done with it. I'd pay that, but never monthly. Way too many ads!
This used to be my go-to for SMS, but now I'm over it. I remember when premium used to be $20 per year, now they're getting greedy and requiring a yearly payment of $60; way too steep for an all access SMS app. I enjoy being able to customize my messenger, but it doesn't mean *that* much to me. I should've at least been grand fathered in, if the decision was to raise the price by $40/year. Ridiculous!
The latest update is a mess. After using this app for years, I continued to use even with the evolution of phones. This is the last time I'm going to accept the bad updates without exploring options. I've used paid options for years, since i was buying themes🙄 The mistakes with paid products have been an issue numerous times, and hope to find a better product on the market. I won't say there are not better products. 1/30/2022 update: I'm not able to send or receive messages properly.
i dont mind the ads as much even though they are always there. my main issue is that the app is super slow now and half the time cant send a message. The send button is grayed out so i have to save the message as a draft, back out, then attempt to open the message again just to send. Sometimes i even have to force close it just so i can send the message. Its to the point where my default messenger is faster, only downside being the customization.
What just happened with this app?? It vibrates twice every time I open it and when I send a text. I checked all of my settings in every possible place and I can't get it to stop. It's fxxxking driving me nuts!!!!! AND I can't text back when I get the pop up notification. I have to close the whole app and reopen it to text back. Also I can't access any themes or fonts. It always says 'check your network connection'
Wow this app has changed quite a bit within the last couple years. I used to be able to customize fonts, font size, colors, etc but now it's very limited. Y'all know want payments to access themes that were once free and the theme store is very glitchy and hard ever opens. I have to constantly restart the app because it sometimes won't let me send a message. Not as good as it used to be...smh
Ok. So i can put a theme on here, download ring tones for it, but i cant send or recieve MMS or media anymore! I get an error message, then a few times a day and even up to a week later i get another 'download unsuccesful' message. Ive sent an error report at least twice with no response. Shame because i liked this app up until 8 months ago.
My only negative review I've ever written. I've loved this app. Used it for years. Loved the themes. Purchased many themes. Now many of them disappeared and the purchased ones I do have endlessly are "Querying Purchase History". It makes it seem like I have to subscribe to access content I previously paid for. I don't get it. I'd be happy to give 5 stars again if it starts working and I can use my themes again.
This app used to be great. I bought the pro version and used it for years. Upon installing it on a new device, I found that my pro version no longer provided me an add free experience. The adds are super annoying, and the app pushes pop ups now. I have since deleted it and am going to use Android Messages now. No adds on that app, for free.
app won't load past the loading screen. and just when you think it might load, it goes to a black screen and crashes. I've had this app in the past and loved it! hopefully this can be fixed. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, with no change. I tried to contact the help email, but got an auto response that the inbox was full and my message wasn't delivered.
I don't like the idea of having to pay for this app and still have to receive ads. I am unable to reply to a text without having to open the app completely. If I forget to completely open the app, I have to "select all" cut, close the message, open the app, paste and send. No, it doesn't take long, but it is a pain in the potacho. I also hate the stupid extras that are available for purchase. They are not something I would use even if they were free. Recommend you keep shopping.
