Went through the process of setting the account and adding people, but the home screen is blank. The people added, though we cant see them, can message my kid, but my kid can't send messages out without using the notification of receiving a message that only drops down for a couple seconds before it's gone. It like this across three different devices. In the parent portal, I can see who has messaged my kid, but not what. Even the "Help Center" comes up blank.

It was working at first, now it's sending me through a neverending cycle of logging me out and logging back in. I have 2 child profiles and when I want to switch profiles to another child, I receive an error message that something went wrong and to ask a grown-up for help. Then I have to through the whole password process AGAIN!! I can't get back in! It's the most frustratjng experience ever because it's an unending loop and I don't know how to break it. Seriously FB?! What is this???

there are a lot of errors that occured in messenger kids, and one of them erased all of my friends that I have, and I can't get them back. I can only message them through groups and that's about it. overall it is a great app for kids messaging their friends, but it still has some bugs roaming around. ps yes, I did tried to reinstall this app and it did not work, and one of my friends looked into my account and saw that I still have my friends friended.
