JPay Customer Insights

1. Other features I wish were improved/included: being able to look at all the past messages, searching to find messages (my inmate can do this on his end, why can't we?), texting feature Nice things about the app: you can send images, short videos separately from an email, which you can't do through the webPreviously, this was great! No issues until the last several upgrades.

2. Now it doesn't work at all! When I click on the app to open it, it just stays on the loading page and NEVER moves past it, even waiting almost 30mins, extremely frustrating!! I now have to go to the web page which is not that mobile friendly! What is the point of having the app if it doesn't work, at all!!It seems to work when it wants to.

3. Other people are complaining as well.I was able to upload photos in my messages and use the snap n send, then all of the sudden it just stopped working.

4. A simple stamp actually still works as designed too.Having issues with notifications telling me I have a new message at 2am, then when I check there are no messages.

5. It allows me to use the video gram but I can't send photos anymore and this has been happening for a month or more.

6. Edit 3/30/23 for those unable to upload photos - I saw someone else say they couldn't upload photos anymore and noticed their permissions for the app changed.

7. That happened to me as well, the permissions to access my gallery and camera had been turned off from last update.

8. A few times my messages get stuck in drafts after I made sure to hit send and then confirm.

9. Does not work! When paying for messages to be sent I would expect the app to function.

10. Now, I'm constantly asked to upgrade, I'm constantly getting a red error due to connection issues , & it's lagging Way too long between screens or one section to the other.

11. It has been stuck on the loading screen for multiple days now, which is starting to get old.

  • Hello, i have to deliver my account and make a new one. I have to change my name from Maria ( name i am called) to my official baptised names Clarinda Jokunda Bos, because if it stays Maria i cannot send money to my penpal. It would be better if you could change my name from Maria to Clarinda Jokunda, but i asked that for weeks now and nothing happened.
