Weekly Bug Crawl by QAwerk: ChatAll for iOS
ChatAll is an application that focuses on helping to learn a new language or further develop the second language by providing users with side-by-side translations of their casual conversations. In ChatAll you can organize private chat and group chat, share images files and audio files, update status and build the profile.
We liked the idea of the application, and decided to try it out during our weekly bug crawl. Unfortunately, we found some unpleasant bugs of ChatAll.
