“Can’t change password. I keep getting the same error message asking me to wait for 3 days whenever I’m trying to change my login password, even though it has passed 3 days or more.”
“Unusable. Terrible. I’ve been trying to make an account for weeks now, verification code just doesn’t send. Doesn’t give the SMS option, the calls don’t even work. Used cellular data, did and tried everything. Even reached out to WeChat support for help and never received a reply after answering their questions. Tried it with another number, worked this time, said the call was sent. It wasn’t. Literally unusable.”
“It’s okay. I really like the emojis but I wish I could change my age or get rid of guardian mode”
“No privacy. This app doesn’t protect the user’s privacy. The compulsory ai imbedded by Tecent called xiaowei sees all my chat history and moments, and i can’t closed it. The service agent just replied me irrelevant information and ignored my report”
