Edit: It's been a while since I've noticed issues with WiFi calling. Solid performance for at least a year now. Thanks for whatever app improvements since my last review. - - - WiFi calling continues to be problematic, but have seen it work flawlessly on occasion. Need to toggle WiFi off/on or leave off for me to hear the other party. Happens whether I dial or answer a call. Otherwise, the app works great. The call monitoring transcribe feature of a call I haven't answered yet is very good.

I like that 3 way calling is so easy to use! I actually use what I pay for now! but I will say it lost a star because I notice when I try to place a call about 20% of the time it gives me an error message. I just try again and it goes through because I know that the error itself makes no sense but still it's annoying. Otherwise, great app! oh one other thing I would say, when you come out of 3 way calls and other holds u have to navigate a menu, it's not very intuitive but I figured it out

1) Short ring time - I miss most calls. 2) I am confused about the blue bubble on the icon that usually says there is a message or something to check within the app. however when I look, there isn't an indicator for anything. It seems the voicemail indicator should show when there is a message, and there isn't. I have spent a few hours with agents going over settings, but this has never been corrected. 3) love the camera feature, downloading photos is too complex.
