Can confirm the point above regarding the app options.

One warning about the app options: requests for money at any stage are a hard stop.

If you are starting with the app options, screenshot anything that looks like a scam and report it.

The variable nobody controls for with the app options is how dense your area is.

One warning about phone apps: screenshots of a conversation travel further than you think.

The variable nobody controls for with phone apps is how far you are willing to travel.

Careful with phone apps, because some free tiers stop you exactly at the reply button.

The thing to watch on phone apps is that some sites make deleting an account deliberately awkward.

Been using the app options steadily since the spring and it has been fine.

If you are starting with the app options, test it on a weekday evening, not a Sunday morning.
