Overall this app works fineand I use it a lot; but the premium subscription is a total waste. The app is glitchy and won't always play over other apps even with the premium service. The avenues to correct this are slim. I still use the app but only to the minimum extent. I only got the premium because of an accidental finger fumble, which is really easy to do with their pop ups. And there's no easy way to reverse it so beware!

I've had this app for over a year now. for the first few months, everything was fine but several months ago, my app must have updated and now I can only listen to videos with Bluetooth earbuds, but I cannot record a video with them and use the mic on the earbuds. It simply will not pick up that mic. my friend has the same issue. she is an apple user, I'm android. so it's not phone specific. would really love for this issue to be fixed. it's extremely inconvenient.

Marco Polo is a unique app and the main way I communicate with my friends and family! It's easy to use and simple. A great blend between texting and facetiming. One downside is that a lot of features are locked behind a paywall, but with the free version it's still useful and fun to use. Older polos are also deleted if you use the free version, so history isn't available, but other than that I love to use this app.
