Ratings and reviews
First, video player is awful. After I'm done playing a video, the app glitches and I can't touch anything without reopening it. Second, why would they make the "end call" button microscopic and in the top right? Why change something that isn't broken? It's an annoying and unnecessary change. I can't reach the very top right of the phone with my thumb. Please just at least give the option to put an end call button in the center lower third like ANY other calling application does.

The app does not support two Bluetooth devices very well. For example, a Bluetooth in my car and a Bluetooth earpiece, and when I get a call / or I make a call, the app uses random output, although the earpiece is active. And the developers have hidden the audio output settings so deeply that switching something when you are driving is almost impossible. At the same time, in WhatsApp, the developers guessed to make the button for switching the audio output right on the screen.

I much prefer this app to the standard messaging app from Samsung. However, Messenger for months now has been having a major issue. Occasionally, when I write a message, somehow it saves the message after I've sent it, so the next time I open the chat to message that person, almost the whole text is in the text box and I have to backspace all of it. I have to delete and reinstall the app to fix it every time.
