5/5Solution
When someone is absent for a long time and his appearance is hidden, can you put in the box of his name that he was absent for a period of time, for example for a month, for more understanding, for example, if he was absent for a month, can you put above that he was absent for a month? Thank you very much.

1/5Personal privacy is not for this app
Awful. The app requires FULL contacts access to connect with other users. Limited access is not enough. You choose only those, who you want to chat with, and those are already using the app, but the messenger says that access to contacts is required.

1/5Update
After recent update in December I can’t figure how to video call one person. It shouldn’t be that hard to figure out, but here I am looking for answers.

5/5Great messenger!
I’ve been using this messenger for longer than a year now and I find it way more convenient than any other messengers available out there today. Best thing about it is that I can send money to any of my friends whatever country they are in.
