Barely usableware

Trying to actually communicate with coworkers using this app is an exercise in frustration. Text entry screen layout is poorly thought out. Attempting to read text that is off screen, when the app only 1-in-10 times allows you to scroll?Fail. Then, it has decided that recent messages need to be hidden below the fold and that the best use of my time is to dig the text out, one millimeter at a time, by multi-finger pushing the text up the screen like a madman. Its a brand new type of gesture thats required, Ill give them that.

But it puts me in mind to offer a very old hand gesture, one that needs no screen to accomplish.

I want to like this, I do. But the frustration levels it generates are akin to teaching my sister how to shift a manual.
