Speechify is absolutely brilliant. Growing up with dyslexia this would have made a big difference. I’m so glad to have it today.

Rocket Chat reviews

Great quick app. Buggy at first but now pretty stable. Real test will be this week. If it doesn't freeze or slow down with a week of major market moving data coming I would call it stable. Once I got the hang of the features the app really grew on me for ease of use while mobile. It handles trading view copies perfect, easy commands to group or direct message. Seems like they are now adding features after the recent version upgrade also.

It's nice to know the app is in heavy development, but it doesn't bode well for it's reliability and bugginess. Every once in a while an update will break things, and everyone in our company has problems with mobile push notifications problems all the time, on Android and iOS. Sometimes they work pretty well then get completely broken. I often switch between the experimental and official app, but not in a fun way. EDIT: I'm now having to force stop and restart the app more than 10 times a day.

I feel like this app is very laggy and inconsistent it has a hard time distubuting messages properly. They will send a message and I won't receive it till much later. And it's just the app. The desktop version dose not have this bug. I'm also unable to upload photos from my phone to the chat, even though it very clearly thinks it can.

Freshchat reviews

One of the biggest missing features is the ability to set a custom notification tone. I'm not going to look at my phone *everytime* I hear a notification sound. The Freshdesk app has this feature yet in Freshchat, where it's arguably more important to set a distinct notification sound, it's completely absent. I really hope this is coming extremely soon. I'm tired of looking for ways to override this. Not having this feature is vexing. EDIT: In response to Freshworks Reply. I noticed this awhile back. I am still disappointed I cannot assign my own custom sound.

2 Things that are really needed: 1) the ability for the agent to go offline if they are busy! 2) to get a notification sound each time the customer replies. Currently you only get one notification when the chat first gets initiated. For all the subsequent ones, you have to constantly keep an eye on the chat to see if there are new replies. Incredibly annoying!

- Sam Fard

It need startup faster (remove startup animation example), when a customer start to chat, you need reply immediately before they left your website. And it don't push notification when i have new message in chat. Ux is not good enough.
