Update: Happening again. Edit 2: Do not disturb wasn't turned on. But suddenly it's all working again. Hopefully they remain reliable. Edit: I checked every notification setting available on my phone, email, and app. All notifications are turned on, but none are coming through. I checked for updates and tried uninstalling, reinstalling, and restarting. Nothing has fixed it. Without notifications, it's become useless as a chat app. The app is fine, but the notifications randomly stopped working.

The entire conversation is left justified, instead of my chats on the right and everyone else on the left. Since there's not even individual chat bubbles, it's hard to scroll through and annoying to try to read through the conversation. Also, only being able to attach 1 photo at a time is a waste of my time. Furthermore, the video chat isn't convenient nor is it easy to utilize. Overall, a junk app.

Hi, Keith. Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. We're sorry to hear that. We'll pass this along to the team so they can review and make the Chat app even better.

It's an adjustment from Hangouts for sure. Chat is clunky in comparison and doesn't work as consistently. I want the option to combine chats and rooms into one page. I just want to see all of my most recent messages at the top of the page regardless of whether it's a "room" or a "chat". And like someone else said, I miss being able to see who has seen the messages.
