Does not workThis app hasn’t worked aug 30. Conversations do not load anymore

Incomplete techAsked to age verify. Keeps saying a valid email address isn’t recognised so can’t use it. Sort out your tech

Glitchiest AppBrilliant idea- going to create an app that rarely works. Is an app that quite literally only serves one purpose (chatting). Always crashes. Repeated requires resetting or deleting to have to redownload. Wait that app already exist… it’s Kik

Recent five-star reviews

Kik back!I personally still use Kik because It still provides hey Facebook that more personal social networking interaction. There’s still a pretty decent groups of people that gather to chat about our everyday lives. Feels more personable than other messenger apps. So I dig it
