Ratings and reviews

the new update is terrible. the items available never load properly. the app itself crashes often and I have to hard close the app to get it working again, it only works 50% of the time. If I select an item to look at further I am unable to go back to the place I was in my search. I have to scroll back through to find my place and the item pictures then disappear. when that happens I also have to reload the app.

extremely slow. often doesn't even load at all despite clearing data and force-stopping it. when it does load, taps take multiple seconds to register, if at all. notifications don't open the app to the correct screen. uploading images for posts is agonizingly slow and often makes the app hang and need a forced restart. images don't load at all on some gives. every basic feature of this app is slow or broken. don't even bother, just use the website instead. even 1 star is overrating it

[Great Community, Awful App] Ever since the update, push notifications no longer work despite being turned on, and clicking on a notification within the app leads to a blank frame which flickers rapidly as if the code has a massive refresh bug. New private messages still require app close/reopen to appear - they do not live load. Image loading takes a millennia and frequently requires app close/reopen.
