This program has a lot of potential but it also has some very serious bugs, it's strange why you haven't fixed these bugs yet. When I type with the Persian alphabet, if I use English words in the sentence, the order of the sentence gets messed up and it is not easy to read the sentence, also the Persian sentence is from right to left. If you want, I can send you the complete list of bugs.

I have been trying to change my subscription plan for 2 days and it has been a nightmare, to say the least. Why does it have to be this complicated? The so-called 'friend of medium' option which Iam supposed to choose on the app isn't even there on the list! Also turns out I cannot change it on my PC, since I originally started the subscription on the app - truly exhausting.

The app is nice, but lately, I've been having issues with the deeplinking implementation. It opens all medium links, even the ones not supported by the app. I always have to copy the link, and open incognito for it not to open the app. It's quite frustrating. I will have to uninstall the app. I hope it gets fixed soon
