Ratings and reviews

Since the latest update, every time I click on notifications or go to open the app I get a black screen. I have to close it and reopen it multiple times on most occasions in order for it to work properly. Additionally, I dislike that various companies, particularly clothing brands, and influencers were added and are being advertized for. I think it takes away from the original concept for the app. Aside from those issues I love the platform, it's a fun way to see what your friends are up to.

I love the concept and I do use the app. However, this is the buggiest app I use. The photos take forever to load and often fail for this reason. Due to the nature of the app, this can mean you aren't "on time" from no fault of your own. Comments are only visible to me if I close the app and reopen or they disappear altogether. The app crashes anytime I click on a notification. Lately, my notifications don't even appear in time for the 2 min window. So, much work to be done.

The recent update has rendered the app near unusable. Not just me, my friend group as well, have experienced late or no notifications, the app crashing when opening from a notification and sometimes just opening from the app itself, and the app not loading pictures from anyone on the homescreen. It's a fun way to keep up with everyone... when it works.
