Stupid
I used this app for years. Then got logged out one day. Getting back in was impossible so I deleted this POS app. Microsoft SUCKS!!!!!!!!
So first of all it took like an eternity to log in, and then the other day i tried to get into group me and then it FULL ON KICKED ME OUT! And then i tried to sign back in, and it said “something went wrong. Please try again” even though my password was right. I finally got it to work but none of my chats were there and there was a message from 2020, from “GroupMe support” saying that i was one of the 100 people that they had selected to win an “iPhone 11” like bro. Scammers.
This is one of the most difficult apps I have ever had the displeasure of signing into. It will not accept your phone number. I have no idea as to why it simply refuses to work properly. I haven’t even signed into it yet, and judging by how bad the user interface is for the sign-in page, I’m going to be in for a rough ride trying to communicate with literally anybody. No joke, I’ve been trying to sign in for a month now, but to no avail. And if you’re a part of an organization that uses this app to communicate (which is my situation), then may the lord have mercy on your soul. Way to go, GroupMe. You have successfully ruined my day, if not, my entire month.
This app is pretty skibidi toilet Ohio rizzler aura dude
Frustrating. Calendar feature in particular is a mess. No way to undo. Can’t handle recurring events. Can’t make a calendar without spamming the group.
Even their own “submit diagnostic logs” email feature sends to a bounced email address. How completely half assed to not even set up their own support flow. This app is not serious.

Oh wow! I’m so frustrated! I’ve been trying to get on the app for over an hour. I’m in that loop, wrong password, reset, wrong password, reset…
I still rate it a 5, because I just know this will get worked out. When I’m able to log in, I love this app. I’ve used it for years with kids at school, on sports teams, and my Biblestudy. It’s always worked well and been very helpful. When I get over my newly acquired imposter syndrome, I feel sure I will love the app again.

I wish I could be as incompetent at my job as app developers are. I don’t even want to use this app but the app website on mobile is mostly unusable due to the amount of pop-ups and banners demanding I use the app. Well fine. I download the app. I try to sign in. Wait, where’s the option to log in with Google? Hmm I could’ve sworn my GroupMe account is via my google account, but maybe not. Go back to the website. Try to log in. Oh, I was right, there’s the option to sign into with google. Go back to the app. Still no option… is this for real? I can’t even fathom any other profession on earth displaying the amount of sheer incompetence and laziness that software developers get away with.
I had to pay just to even download the app 🤦🏽♀️
Does not work. Glitches out every time I use it. I tried to fix by clearing the GroupMe storage cache, deleting app and reinstalling it, and it still won’t work. Please fix!
Just because I’m underage by one year means that I can no longer be in a chat with my club witch means I can’t communicate with anyone and I can’t retry with the same phone number TERRIBLE
All I’m going to say is that this app completely broke after the update for me, I can’t view chats, view pictures, leave chats, delete chat. And they have made no way so far to fix it for me.
It’s disappointing that I cannot change the skin tone of my reaction emojis. One would think that since most if not all the other SM allow this, GroupMe would as well but it appears that the app is behind the times.
Terrible service, I tried to log in and it didn’t work. It kept saying “Something went wrong. Please try again” and then I tried to create a new account with a new email, and it just said “Something Went Wrong” Honestly, I would rate this app 0 stars but that’s not possible because I have to right a review. Terrible and would NOT recommend unless they fix this.
