What are users saying about WeChat

D70%
by D####:

Asks for unnecessary permission otherwise it doesn't work. For example, even if I do not wish to use this app to share location or find nearby friends, it still asks for permission to my location and would just shot down if I deny its request. Same goes to contact information, permission to make phone calls, etc. I think that's pretty dirty.

N70%
by N####:

Very difficult to sign in, the phone number verification code is whats troubling me. Please remove the phone number verify. Why can't we just sign in by fb which is WAY FASTER and less complex.

D70%
by D####:

Suddenly logged me out and now I cannot login totally, please solve the problem! It really very irritating and i need to use the app to contact others!!!!

N70%
by N####:

6.6.1 update broke the ability to post to 朋友圈. Now I can click on the camera icon and choose up to 9 photos but can't proceed anywhere from there. You can still see other's posts, just can't post yourself. I'm thinking this is either a glitch or maybe I'm banned from posting for some reason now? If so I'll change the review accordingly once it's fixed or I have an answer.

X70%
by X####:

WeChat is a good app. The team has done so well so far, and it is really highly commendable. Nonetheless, there is more room for improvement. Please let the Technical Team consider the following. 1. There's no option to allow you correct grammatical errors and constructions. 2. There's no option to directly respond to a particular message. This sometimes make the chat difficult to follow. Please see if something can be done about these concerns.

Be carefull, i accidently uninstalled this app, when i reinstalled the app it didn't recognise my phone and had to go through a stupid verification process even though i was using the correct username and password to login, it's plain stupid.

I70%
by I####:

The delay in messages seems to have worsen after the update as I'm just receiving messages my friends sent a week ago. I don't know if this is due to the network error I keep seeing whenever I open the app that is never fixed no matter how many times I tap the error message.

I want to see my old video at my moments but I can't play it. It take forever but still can't play it. Why? Last time okay now no more.

D70%
by D####:

Usually this is an excellent app but everytime they do an update something gets changed for the worst. Now it appears to limit the size of file you send..ie video. Everytime it has update it gets ruined.i would give 5 * but fed up with the changes.

Translations are bad. Please make the translations as precise as you can.

D70%
by D####:

This app is ugly, asks for too many required permissions and is a half baked version of the true Chinese WeChat. Many features available on mainland Chinese phones built in WeChat are not available in this version. If it wasn't for the high number of users there would be no reason to use this app.
