Ratings and Reviews
What's happened?
Wechat was getting really slow so I got out and when I entered it again it was pitch black and kicked me out. This happened a lot of times since I tried a lot. Then I offloaded the app and it would not install again, no matter what I did. Now I deleted it and reinstalled again; this time it worked, hope it works normally now because I think apart from the thing that happened earlier, WeChat is getting all over the world and my mum now uses it to pay for like everything 😅
WeChat stop working!
I wish I can give higher rating but the recent update frustrates me to no end. After the update, my WeChat iPad has stop connecting to my house wifi and my office wifi. I still receive message notifications outside the app but when I clicked on it, my WeChat will show it is disconnected from the internet server. I have deleted the app and re-downloaded it, and it works okay for one night, and the next morning the same issue happened again. My internet connection has no issue connecting other China-owned apps, so I am not sure what’s the problem. I have reported this issue on the WeChat website but so far no one is getting back to me. Please help!
Simple is the best
Wechat is different than the other social chatting applications, it is pretty simple and easy to use, there’s no ads or other annoying stuff like Facebook and instagram. The Moments function is similar to Instagram but more interesting to use. But Wechat still need a lot of improvement on features like Linking to other main social medias outside China. That will be more useful.
