SAME PROBLEM!

I’m actually having the exact problem. Sometimes it worked when I simply deleted the app from my phone and then installed it back on. However, for the first time I could go into a conversation and see every image, video or basically any media that have been sent over time. But then, for example, when I close the app and return after some time, the same problem gets back and it’s the same how it was before I did the process of reinstalling of Messenger. Moreover, there’s this issue where it just doesn’t show me if the person is typing or not. I don’t know if that’s a new update “feature” or if that’s another bug it has. So, Please please, have a look at this as it’s starting to be really annoying! Many thanks!

Stupid details

I hate when someone sends me a voice message instead of typing it in a few words, but thankfully messenger finally allowed then to record one long voice message instead of dozens many of which started with something like omg it stopped after a minute I dont know if what I said recorded, let me tell that again. I then when you were in the middle of listening you phone would shut and you had to play that one from start. So thanks for finally doing the logical move and lets fix another one being the people shown after trying to re-sent a message. Why not show the people you chat with the most and instead app always shows people that you don’t even talk to. And you have to type the name you are looking for in the search.

PROBLEM!

Hello I like the app, BUT. There is some problems on Apple devices, some sended photos not showing up they are shown like blank darker square (in this case sometimes they "load" after few minutes) and in other ir shows "message is not available" .

I am sure that the message isn't deleted and I have to look at the picture on other device like iPad for example. And it is not problem just one device, it sometimes happend on my ipad and I have to switch to iPhone ti see it (and vice versa) .... ot os not by the connection or storage, it happens on Wi-Fi same as on LTE and it is not problem with my account my iPhone X, iPad PRO, iPhone 12 Pro MAX, and my GF's new iPhone SE (2) doing it too.

Please can you check it out? It's little anoying. Thanx.
