To be perfectly honest, its ugly. From a design standpoint I understand what they were going for but its adding a lot of features no one will use or care about. I wish theyd revert it back to its previous state but I doubt a large company would even acknowledge any of these reviews. If you havent updated yet, I would refrain from doing it if possible.
Update: there are now issues sending messages and dropping calls. This app is garbage.
