The last few months it has been at best mildly frustrating and at worst almost unusable, and everything in between. Never works seamlessly. Often can't refresh without closing and reopening every 10 minutes or so. There are days no one can see my albums I shared, and I can't see theirs. I can't even see the photos in my my own albums. 5/25/24: so they permanently deleted my photos in albums. Great. Some were spontaneously taken on the app. Never to be seen again. Thanks!

Ads have become past the point of obnoxious. Each click on the app isa new advertisement. What used to be one ad has turned into 2 to 3 ads at a time for inane games. The features are getting worse ie taps expire and you cant see who sent it after 3 hours and the lack of a basic photo requirement or a complete profile from so many users is off putting. Sniffies is way better and is web based with less hassle.

Worst app ever, The moment you hit the back button you will be greeted with a long ad, the moment you click on somebody's profile and you go back to the home page you get greeted with an ad, It constantly says unable to refresh. Every time an ad pops up now I just close the app out and reopen it because it's so annoying. And they block your view and ability to click things with an ad of theirs trying to get you to pay for their extremely expensive premium.
