Both sides occasionally got scrambled messages. Sometimes messages wouldn't show up at all and had to be resent.

I googled the issues a few times and there seems to be a lot of similar complaints from other users of all OTR apps (like PigdinOTR).

I may have been some mistakenly from another gtalk app running or older android phones.

One big UX issue is making sure both people are using it always.

Ah, there's big issues with OTR with users who are logged in more than one location. OTRv2 didn't work well with that, but I think OTRv3 may have fixes...
