4 stars because I don't think anything else like this exists, but the app could use some work. You can't watch videos out of order or all previous videos will be marked watched. I think this also explains why my family didn't get my videos when I was out of service for a while. If there was a video in the group with a newer timestamp, mine *came in* already marked as watched. Not fun.

Great when it works. We pay for premium, but I'm constantly closing the app, clearing the cache, uninstalling and reinstalling to get things to work. Sometimes I get a response telling me my last message's audio was garbled and that message was completely unintelligible. Great way to keep in touch with friends, but I'm frustrated with it every day.

This app keeps getting worse and worse. First of all, the videos are very glitchy now. The audio and video does a weird stuttering every second. Makes it hard to listen to other people's videos in general. The other big issue is that about a year ago the developers took away a bunch of features in the free version of the app (2x speed, scrolling through videos, uploading personal videos, text response, picture responses, etc). Now, to have those features, you have to pay $5 a month!!
