It's absolutely amazing, but I don't like how you HAVE to pay for coloring your messages I don't like that because I get confused sometimes with the names since their at the top of the screen I also don't like how it loads so slow it takes the time from my important stuff and wastes my phone battery it's really annoying but other than that I am giving this app a four star review but it's still good! 👍☺️

It's a pretty good app where you can your own stories. However, there are two things that kinda make me annoyed. One is the colors. Maybe give a couple more colors and/or allow us to change to the person's color with the free colors instead of having to make a new person just for the color. The second thing is that new comment thing. I would rather have an option to have it centered for like dialog. Overall, it's a great app, and I'll continue to use it.

This TextingStory is awesome! I've made a bunch of stories and it is enjoyable. One problem. I'm supposed to be receiving a Samsung Phone next week because yesterday, the charging port in my phone (the square hole in which you insert your charger) is broken and it can no longer charge. I've got really concerned because all of my data on the app is on there, and I fear that all of those stories won't be saved on the new phone. If anyone could help me save my stories, it would be nice!
