[Edited] The app is good. It's just that none of the buttons available when inserting an image caption work. They are not working, so I have to change to the desktop version of the website to insert links in the image caption. Also, when I want to submit to publication on the app, it does not show the publications I'm a writer for. The only option I see is "No publication". I do hope that you fix these bugs soon. It would be of great help. Thank you.

Removing the story editor is a very terrible decision. Not everyone has a laptop and the app has been great writing on it. Now it's a struggle logging into chrome, changing it to desktop view and typing. Asides it being inconvenient, it is very confusing to understand. Writers and readers are supposed to be considered before making any decision. You just don't look out for one and ignore the other. This update is messed up. I have a deadline and I haven't figured out how to type with ease. Mtch.

Hi there! We hear you, and we have just released an app update bringing back the mobile editor. It should make its way to your device in the next hours. Thank you for your patience!

A really great app. The web experience with the chrome browser on PC was awesome, but this was just... SURREAL! App comes with a minimal, easy to use, beautiful interface and the editing power is quite excellent. I would love if there could be a walk through"tutorial" of the app on first launch, containing explanations on the various editing tools and what the various icons represent. Also, It'd be really nice if Medium could extend the number of articles for non members.🤧
