It is a shame. They did a major update to the app late 2024, and it absolutely sucks now. Missing features and tons of terrible bugs: Brightness is full manual, no auto and doesn't follow the device settings; no longer can use volume buttons as page turn; screen brightness setting resets constantly, regularly doesn't load the app, just a blank screen, until you close and reopen the app, the lost goes on. The UI changes were nice, but the actual app IS HORRENDOUS.
