This app is very confusing and not user friendly at all. As a new user, it is really hard to understand what to do and where to start. The interface is unclear, and there are too many options without proper guidance. It honestly feels like this app is designed only for professionals or advanced users, not for normal people. I also faced confusion while navigating basic features, which made the experience frustrating. If the design was simpler and more beginner friendly.
