Hopefully This Is Helpful !!

hopefully this may be helpful to some people, i downloaded this app last year and i was able to sign up, i made a new account and everything was fine, until a few days later when i wanted to open the app, it said that i got blocked and i needed to have someone else to help me unblock my account, so basically i did, and i tried it with 5 different people, and none of them worked, i deleted the app and re-downloaded but nothing happened, and my account was gone just like that, i was extremely devastated because i have friends on wechat and thats the only app i can communicate with the through, so basically my number was blocked from that app for whatever pathetic reason; in the end i had to actually change my phone number and i made a new account and it worked, and ever since then i never got blocked, im still using it today and im writing this so that whoever is confused may find this useful. i don’t hate the app, in fact i like it, its just that i was really bummed out on why they blocked my previous number for no reason; also don’t forget you can change your wechat language to english, if you don’t know lol, you can change it from your settings too :-)

Blocked accounts no problem

It’s literally the best social media app I’ve used!!

Some features I love: message and post translation, deviralization of posts, levels of privacy settings of your posts, invisibility of your comments and likes of your friends’ posts from their friends who you aren’t friends with which also makes your posts’ like counts visible to only you, making stickers with your own pics or vids, easy voice message usage, really high quality video calls (much better than messengers).

Most of the low ratings say their accounts got blocked. Actually, the reason of its tough security is that it has many functionalities, such as credit card deposit, wire transfer, scan payment... For those who get blocked: 1. You could set up security accounts (in advance!) so that those friends can easily verify for you; 2. Sometimes you need to have your friends sent verification codes to your wechat, which never failed on me once, so I’m not sure why some reviews couldn’t figure it out; 3. Sometimes it makes you choose your actual wechat friends from a bunch of random accounts which is really easy.

Wow , flash back to the turn of the century, and aol chat rooms

This is a pretty cool app, it’s not corrupt and bombarded with fake or dead accounts catfishers or people playing head games. In fact this app does monitor for bad seeds, or people introducing themselves to me , and two minutes later I’m now addressed as “love” and with no shame at all and in the same sentence, try to hustle me to send or wire them some money so their phone doesn’t get cut off. Wheather I figure it out or not, that’s how easy it is to get taxed. I’m sure a lot of dumb lonely fools fall hard for it. Anyhow, I’ve already been talking to someone within my first few minutes of joining, and and as long as I don’t become unbearably stupid all of a sudden, the brains of some (most) of them is in retrograde, they are dumb as a shack of dirt, all in all 5 stars and 3 thumbs up!
