Ratings and reviews

This is the worst app I have ever used. It forgets who I am and makes me login every time I use it. Scrolling through items is very laggy/jittery/slow and progressively gets worse as you scroll more. Titles and descriptions of items are cut off with ellipses (...) and there's no way to expand them to view the whole thing. There's no way to expand or zoom in to pictures. They make you pay just to bookmark posts for later, which is excessive. Often, you need to come back to a post later.

The new update is awful. My old email wasn't recognized so I needed to create a new account. looking through gifts, the page will randomly scroll back to beginning. After viewing an item and swiping back, it brings you back to the top of the page. Change can be good but this was NOT implemented well, especially when they ask you to subscribe the second you log in.

Cannot login, set up a profile or even reset password. it just keeps crashing anytime you try to create an account and says to keep tryinf whwn verification fails to sens whwn trying to reset the password you just created. I have a confirmation email but cannot even get logged in to use it. If I'm having this much trouble getting onto the app, I doubt it will be much better to use it.
