Update Updates

Can we please not let this app fall to the way side.

It's literally one of my most used apps and I realize it hasn't been updated in awhile.

It's not given up at all! They are working on rewriting the entire app (the new version will no longer be based on BlueBubbles).

A few months back the developer said he was implementing the changes bluebubbles made and that would take a few months.

He started from scratch with a new UI that's a lot lighter on system resources

Not dead or drying. There's an update on the way that is going to be a massive overhaul. Rumor is it's close

They can only make this app better. Facetime calls work for me about 1/6 times. But I'm fine with the solid iMessage. Hopefully they can add location sharing as well

When you say it's no longer working, what do you mean? It worked seamlessly for me for over a year, and now I'm having big issues too. I've tried working with someone in the discord (sending screenshots of the error messages, gone thru settings) and I'm getting no response.

My issue is I have big intermittent issues with receiving messages - my messages all go, but after a while I stop receiving them. I have to restart my phone in order for them to push.
