It would be great if there was an option to mark an article as unread. Sometimes I scroll through an article to see how long it is before reading it, but then it gets marked as read. Sometimes the app can lag quite a bit and be unresponsive. Overall, I really appreciate what Substack stands for an how it enables open discussion that is being crushed elsewhere.

Hi Steven! The next release (coming in the next few days) should fix this one-off bug affecting a small group of readers. If you update and still see the issue, please shoot me an email with the steps you're taking and if possible a screenshot/recording of what's happening: jamil[at]substackinc.com. Looking forward to getting this fixed for you!

First time install for a new user. The app doesn't disable the setting to turn off the screen while watching a video published on substack. When I unlock the screen the video is paused, I then need to go back and reload the article and press play again. It would also be good for commuters that have intermittent reception on cellular to have a cache so they can download the video or pre-buffer the whole item.

Some gripes, but the potential is there So I only have one channel follow, but he's got great content I'm looking for, His videos run 5 to 20min depending on the day. My biggest issue is if I pause and "alt tab" to another app I can't get the video to resume, I have to close the app and go back to it. The next issue is, there is no Fullscreen option on the videos? That's absolutely Unacceptable and really negatively impacts the information I'm trying to gather. And videos let screen to time out
