Ratings and reviews

New interface is nice, sure it takes some getting used to, but it's waaaay better, don't know why some people are hating it but i loved it. People who didn't like it use their phones with their fingers up, so i think you guys shouldn't really undo the changes, but maybe an option so te user can costumize where the bar is at would be good, could even throw some "hide status bar" for people that don't care about that, it would be better if it was a space for groups, management would be easier.

The new UI changes were envisioned by some utterly insane folks. New button placement makes mistakes and missclicks from having a dirty screen more punishing and more common, as well as being very uncomfortable. My thumb points up when I'm holding my phone, why the hell would I want the buttons to be as low as possible? This is a change for mere novelty, and although I appreciate the attempt, it's a bad attempt. At least the new colors are nice, dark colors work well for me. Undo these changes.

the new interface sucks, we've been used to the same interface for years, a change all a sudden is the worst thing that could've happened, and it's so annoying to have the "tool" bar at the bottom part of the screen, makes swiping more difficult, causing it to click on things instead of swiping up to close the application or swiping to the side, everything got "overcomplicated" and less minimalistic, at least give us the opportunity to choose the old interface.
