Arattai Messenger Reviews

App is very slow and buggy on iOS. Takes a couple of seconds to even send very basic text messages. Every time someone from my contacts is trying to send me a message, ArattaiMessenger is asking me to create a new contact. Developers definitely to prioritize the speed of message delivery over everything else. ArattaiMessenger cannot be a replacement for WhatsApp or iMessages until ArattaiMessenger fixes the most basic functionality of any messenger which is to be able to send text messages without noticable lag.

When someone already in my contact list messages me, it. Shows they are not part of my contacts and gives me the option to add them. But they are already in my contacts and i have given full access of my contacts to ArattaiMessenger .

Audio quality need to improve , camera flip function not user friendly, use common icon may help user to adopt , image crop and other edit option should be in right position, confusing for users.

Also change app name so people use commonly .apart from Tamil people maximum Indian not able to pronounce

I love that an Indian native instant messaging app exists, also love that I could use my US number to sign up. There were a few performance issues due to higher loads over the last few days but those seem to be resolved for the most part. It’s still a bit laggy but not completely unusable.
Some feedback - I’m finding it hard to find contacts who have signed up and start texting them. It could be a US - India issue since they signed up back in India using an Indian phone number. Nevertheless, makes it a bit harder to switch to this from WhatsApp.

I would like to Say that first of all You need to change the name of ArattaiMessenger so that it’s normally and should be used to for all and second thing you have to update some more features to use it very easily like now we do WhatsApp. So I hope you will look forward it and make it very soon all the changes whatever the people want it and now it’s the good time to do these updates because nowadays our honorable prime minister itself say that be Indian but Indian and support Indian brand products

A simple app name that is easy to pronounce might be way better. I am using ArattaiMessenger since a week but still get confused with the name and pronunciation.

Wow! Finally an Indian home grown app with a beautiful interface and great features, similar to Skype and WhatsApp both. Works pretty well, though maybe a few kinks to work out here and there. You go Zoho!!

I’m so happy that India has WhatsApp kind of an app of its own, but we need to keep improving ArattaiMessenger and share ArattaiMessenger too many people possible also fix the context are not appearing

Unfortunately when I tried to open simple hello message, app crashes! So I can’t reply even though person in in my contacts list!

You should work on API’s immediately. Add basic scenario when entering mobile number and clicking on that should take to respective contact to chat, if contact is not available on Arattai should send SMS invite message.

I have been using ArattaiMessenger for some time now and loving it. All it needs now is end to end encryption and probably more servers due to high traffic that is sure to come in. Highly recommended

Arattai is a fast, feature-rich messaging app with a strong focus on data privacy and excellent performance on low-bandwidth networks. However, the lack of end-to-end encryption for text messages is a major security gap that needs to be addressed urgently.

Hi team thanks for providing us an alternative to WhatsApp.
ArattaiMessenger is working great but calls not getting connected. Would be happy that’s too getting resolved so can completely moved to this.

Sending multimedia like photos and videos takes a lot of time. This needs some work. It is not up to the mark in 21st century especially in 2025. I would request developers if they are reading this message to take some action and improve this. Also, just to make this application more popular I would also think that they name it something different, which is more catchy. And people get to know easily.

I been using it for a while, it has much better features than WhatsApp. We can schedule a meetings and birthday reminders or any important days will never be missed with these feature.

Perfect alternative seamless transition. I am enjoying a lot. Recommended it to all family and friends and they moved to it smoothly. Good interface good options. Sometimes better options available than existing messaging apps.

I would say ArattaiMessenger surprised me. It’s refined and has features of WhatsApp and Zoom combined. It’s fabulous to know this is a privately owned company and they built it without spending billions. Better to have options so that if suddenly one fine morning someone bans or restricts WhatsApp, you don’t loose connectivity to your loved ones.

I am loving ArattaiMessenger as an alternate to WhatsApp. Just a quick enhancement in WhatsApp, the chat list shows the person’s signup name if they’re not in my contacts, but shows my saved contact name if they are. I think this is an easy and intuitive way to recognize chats. It would be great if Arattai could implement this feature too. Thanks!

Man the new update solved my contact issues.. now I can easily search the contact or without searching it. It will automatically show the contacts which is in ArattaiMessenger. (Condition contact should be synchronized). In setting.
Rest other things I found good. No issues..
only one thing, end to end encryption in chat is required . Since it’s there in call, video calls.

With few days of using, ArattaiMessenger seems to have all the potential to become a big player in chat apps.
