I really like this app for keeping up with friends. I have a shared premium account and always loved the features like being able to listen to a polo while doing something else in another application/website. I don't know what happened but a number of months ago this stopped working reliably. Now the only paid feature that works for me is being able to fast forward through a message. I'm not getting rid of the app but I'm very bothered by this. Customer support didn't help.

DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP! This app gets WORSE with every update! Simple things like favoriting a specific video, rw/ff, adding filters used to b standard functionality that was FREE, and now they are pulling those to get you to purchase their premium version. I should've stopped using this app long ago but I still hav a few friends that use it. I'd rate this neg stars if I could. Find an alternative.

Great app that helps keep me connected to my long distance friends. I just wish it saved my spot in long videos when I'd leave the app. It's very frustrating having to skip forward to get back to that same spot when I don't have the premium services.
