What’s going on? – Kik Messaging & Chat App Review

I’ve been using kik for a good two or three years and now it’s just gone down hill. Sometimes when I’m typing, the app will suddenly freeze and then unfreeze after nearly a minute or it’ll just freeze and I have to leave the app to come back. But when happens, so does another problem; at times when I come back, it won’t even take me to my messages so I’ll have to leave and come back a few more times before I’m finally taken to my messages. The ads I understand, they’re to keep the app free, but constantly seeing ones for other dating apps? I dunno if those are the types of ads chosen to appear on this app, but I hate seeing them. I’ll even get random chats from strangers on here; scams or not, they’re all woman asking me if I’m interested in this or that. When I first got kik, I got it to rp/write fandoms and talk to people, not hook up. None of that even existed at the time, and I preferred it that way. This app needs its bugs fixed. I hate constantly seeing ‘Connecting’ atop my messages as well. I’ll come and go out of the app, turn my wifi on and off, use cellular data… I even deleted the app and re-downloaded it, but the problem still doesn’t seem to have gone away. All it did was delete all my messages with people. Please fix the app or try to do something :(
