Mostly a really good app. It's missing a bunch of functionality from desktop, which is normal but disappointing. Largest missing feature I've noticed recently is a lack of comments on Update posts, but it's just generally harder to search or explore (because the website is good, not because the app is bad)

Barely functional for browsing. Navigation is a mess. There is no direct tab for backed projects, it's part of "saved projects" somehow. You cannot navigate from the activity feed to the actual project the notification is from. Trying to pay by credit card that uses verification from inside the app doesn't work, you need to do that in the browser. A lot of wasted potential and frustration with the app.

since the most recent update I can no longer see new projects. The app remains black like it's loading but nothing ever loads. Same thing if I try to look at what projects I've backed. the only feature I'm able to use is if there is any activity from the projects i backed prior to the update. I miss my old app. update: I can now sometimes see new projects but it doesn't work consistently or often. I've also lost the ability to read updates that aren't in email form. can't read them in app
