Needs more independent third-party expert analysis
mm21mmtravelreviewer
This has been an interesting app so far. I can’t say one way or another if it is good or bad in terms of privacy and security, so I think their product team should do more to seek out third-party experts to do a more thorough review as to the claims being made about security and privacy for Wire. The reviews here so far seem mixed and inconsistent. Or maybe some of the reviews are not truthful and may be put here by govt or competitors who don’t like Wire(?) One thing that is fairly obvious, however, is that they need to work on their UI/UX to make it easier and more intuitive to use. This seems to be a common theme for app developers in places like Switzerland and Germany. They know how to build things, but in terms of user empathy—a big question mark. I think the one privacy issue they do have is in showing so many users in the Search function when trying to connect with friends, etc. That feature alone should go. Not necessary and potentially intrusive, as some here have already shown by getting spammed with job scams, etc. Hope they will continue to make improvements.
Scam

I almost got scammed on this app. I was contacted for a job I applied for. It looked legit. They had emails and they even send me their official offer letter and I even got the employee handbook. They were very calm and patient with me and they wanted to send me a check for supplies for a remote job. I deposited the check and then they wanted me to wire transfer it back. I didn’t do that and I ignored him and a week went by and then the check bounced. I had someone in cyber security look into it and he said it was a fake email that was being redirected to someone else to make it look legit. Please don’t use this app unless you have actually met them in person.

This application is known to be used by scammers who are trying to scam people using this app as an interview communication method. It is terrible, unreliable, and must be stopped immediately

My husband was contacted through text message about a job and they told him to download this app so that he can do an interview which I thought was kind of weird so we go along with it they ask for his address I said that’s DEAD they not getting that then they started asking questions and as soon as they got to the question how would you like to get paid with checks or direct deposit and he said direct deposit the interview went silent I told my husband God Know best and that people will do anything to get people information…. So please beware-of this App it don’t make sense to do an interview through text message I’ve never heard of that before. And might I add always read the reviews.
Job scam used this app

This app was used by a SCAM to try to get money. If someone asks you to use this app for a job offer/interview it is a SCAM. Sent me a $4900 check to cash. I did not fall for it just be aware!!
Very Good but with one key issue
Rrfghgfeaqfhcddehyr
This app is the perfect messaging app with the ability to draw images, send text, ping, and many more cool stuff. The problem though is that sometimes when you write a very very long message then it kicks you out of the app and you have to wait for your phone to start working again. Then when you re-open the app then it deleted the draft you had. To the Developers: Please fix this bug. I love to chat with my friends and family with Wire but this one problem is too much to handle. I have gotten frustrated several times by this bug so please fix it soon. It really is probably the only problem so keep up the great work!!
