Ratings and reviews

I like this app. So much better than using groups.io on the web. I didn't really like filling my inbox with emailed notifications. However, the app seems not to have the facility to get notifications on the phone without them also coming via email. How do we get phone-only notifications? The help pages don't go anywhere, just back to my list of groups!

When UX goes wrong. This entire platform, not just the app, is convoluted and disjointed, missing critical fundamental features. This is the by-product of user experience (UX) folks being self-congratulatory for an ill-conceived interface. What a shameful waste of time.

Lots of "Network Error" messages reduce the usefulness of the app. Also, I couldn't find anywhere within the app to change notification settings. It doesn't seem to provide any advantage for me over using a web browser.
