There's a lot that I like about Medium, but the app doesn't allow searching in articles, which is an incredibly basic feature, the lack of which makes reading through the app far worse than just using a browser. In general, the members-only thing is a mess. It's much too easy to click on things without realising they're members-only, and then your allowance is gone before you've actually read anything.

I have a bug when replying to a post. I can see above the send button, a second send button. It appears after entering a key and disappears quickly after. So tapping aaaa will cause 4 Flickers. Is there some recomposition happening with the height of the bottom bar or something? Anyways hope this helps and pm me if you want me to try and repro.

Badly needs a higher contrast display mode. For a service and app designed for reading, not having an outdoor-compatible or visually impaired compatible reading mode is a crime! The dark mode is a mid toned grey text on a black background. Trying to read in a bright setting is a horrible experience. Please give us at least the option for pure white text on a black background
