Seems to be getting better ? – Wickr Me - Private Messenger Review

Still missing features from the 3.x version and has made good on promises to re-add several of them so far. Most of the recent updates have just been bug fixes, however. Hoping for more robust feature updates soon ... Most urgently needed fix is the annoying 'instant logout' experienced whenever the user switches to other apps. User should have the ability to set a timeout for 30 seconds, etc. Long term: get rid of the video verification. It’s just goofy; no one I know uses it. What about just scanning a QR code? Something simpler. Short summary: ✅ Tap-to-read (“padlocks” feature) ✅ Anonymous notifications ✅ Granular control of ephemerality ✅ Ability to delete conversations ⚠️ App logout timer controls ⚠️ Ability to delete profile picture ⚠️ Ability to delete contacts ⚠️ Screenshot notification ⚠️ Set default BOR/expiration ⚠️ Message read notifications ⚠️ Better user verification — Previous 2-Star Review — Still missing message-read padlocks. I hear those are coming back soon-ish? Also don't like that notifications now display the other user's name. Liked it better when it just said "New message" and not "Bob has sent you a new message." — Previous 1-Star Review — The app still has a loooong way to go before it will be on the same level as the 3.x version. Really hope those updates promised on the company blog come hard and fast. Otherwise market share will go the way of Sears and JC Penny.
