Ratings and reviews

Whenever I go to any other application and then switch to this app, or if I have the app open for too long, it stops loading posts and prevents me from posting. The only fix is to close and reopen the app, sometimes requiring me to log in again. I have to dance back and forth whenever I want to post anything and have to do it quickly or else it fails to post. Really hope this common issue gets fixed.

No matter what I pick or how much I crop it I can't upload a new profile pic (or one at all on my alt). The problem is worse on desktop since it just shows a big version of my selected image that takes up most of the screen, which makes accessing any buttons on the web page impossible. Besides that the app is fairly decent. But that issue is too big to ignore.

Edit: an update seems to have fixed the issue. I'll change my score after a bit of testing, really appreciate the turn around. Was really enjoying the app. Now I can't open it through the app icon of my phone. I have to come to the Google play store on Android and click open to be able for the application to open and not crash. I don't know what this bug is, but it started for me on June 6th. I cleared the cache, deleted and reinstalled the app, but neither fixed the issue.
