Ratings and reviews

Clunky and difficult to use. I like using medium but I think it's more designed to be used on a PC rather than a mobile phone. If you leave the app while writing a comment, usually to get a link or double check something, it goes back to the homepage and everything you wrote is gone. The recently viewed articles list either regularly deletes everything or just won't load. I like reading most of what is written on medium but the phone app makes using it quite frustrating.

Overall a very good application that could be better. A built in dictionary would be good, for those new to the English language, or at least the ability to highlight text with the option of choosing the Google dictionary and translate. A natural sounding, read out-loud-function would be really helpful for the vision impaired.

Bro there's some bug in the app It seems. Every story that I add to my reading list is getting added twice. I tried removing one of the duplicates cuz I felt it might have happened because I accidentally clicked twice on the save button (because it also takes more than 2 minutes to actually just add an article to your list, it just keeps loading forever) but doing that removed both copies of the duplicate. Can't wait to change my ratings to 5 star once this issue is resolved. Sending love 💕
