Ratings and reviews

I can't hardly remember the times when I was waiting for this app before it was available - I love it! Something I was really hoping would have been included, though, is the ability to update your profile. I mostly use my phone to go on Letterboxd and the site (even in desktop mode) is already finicky about editing, so having that option in the app would make this a 5-star rating.

So there's now a big navigation bar that sits at the bottom of every page, which sits above my phone's navigation bar. It's a lot of wasted space for stuff that was previously hidden in a swipe menu on the side. Not to mention the wasted space of the black bar with the title of the page in a massive font at the top. Posters are now smaller and have more space between them, reducing the information on each page. All in all, harder to read and harder to navigate, a pretty massive downgrade.

Not a fan of the most recent ux overhaul. The ever-present nav bar and oversized banner feel like a huge waste of screen real estate. I see the intent with the new movie pages, but I'm seeing less of the information I care about on viewing. Bring back top reviews and the cast/crew carousels. I can't prove that this is due to the update, but I have also been seeing a lot of 'Error loading film - unexpected response' errors, which I haven't seen in the years I've been paying for this app.
