    I installed and uninstalled the priuschat app in record time. I have never dealt with such a horrible app. I'm only posting because I received an unsolicited email which was required to complete my new account.

    Wow. If only I had been told I was going to get an email to confirm my account.

    Is this the reason the app wouldn't work this past weekend?

    I swear, the only people who think the internet or an app works are the morons who were paid to set it up.

    It's not that bad, I use it all the time. It's the PriusChat website servers, more often than not, that makes the app performance less than ideal.

    What's the big deal with an email to confirm you have a valid contact on your account? SMH

    I find Priuschat works just fine on a phone without an app. Just using Safari on an iPhone, in my case.

    That is, when Priuschat's working, it's been total mess today.

    Welcome. An email to confirm an account is pretty much standard procedure to try to weed out bots.

    As said, though, the PC site has been a bit of a train wreck itself lately. Seems OK now, but was totally messed up all weekend.

    As for apps, they usually give you a pretty crippled version of what a standard web browser provides.

    It was a very stressful day.

    I was trying to search for a threat on the page via the app. I had found the threat via google, so I went to the app and typed in the name of the thread and the app said that it didn't exist. That started it.
