I've used this app for a long time haven't been able to login recently it keeps saying login failed I've done everything from making sure it's updated to clearing its cache it still WONT WORK. PLEASE HELP. If you don't actually give a damn about fixing your app then just shut it down already because you've shown you don't care when no one can even login in.

It's clear the devs aren't even attempting to fix this horrendous app with it's constant bugs and lack of ability to even access it. This has been a problem for OVER A YEAR. You'd think a company would do something when their app is unable to run the minimum of getting past the sign up/log in page, but clearly not this one. This app was once a relatively good and fun way to make friends and chat, but now it's completely useless. Don't waste your time downloading, it won't let you on anyway.
