Hangs immediately and crashes once opened. I haven't had this problem before, but the app gets worse and worse each year. It has been almost unusable on two of my phones as it doesn't recognize physical keyboards, blocks virtual keyboard overlays for special characters such as Ä, Ö and Æ. Customer support has been friendly and answers in timely manner, but has never been able to solve any of technical problems I've had with the app over the years.

Hi Jodel Support, I’m contacting you again because I keep receiving the same feedback, but the issue is still not resolved. This is a new account, and my posts have been blocked and my comments have been invisible since the day I joined Jodel. I have never been able to properly use this account. I have already deleted the app, reinstalled it, and updated it, but nothing has changed. I’m honestly very frustrated because I keep reporting the issue and receiving the same response without a solut

it's quite frustrating that android doesn't have the voice feature. You can't listen to, and you can't make an audio. It's only available to IOS. The most frustrating thing is that the feature has been available for months, and it seems as though jodel doesn't want to roll it to android.
