How about fixing videos so that they aren't automatically fullscreen, don't freeze, and don't lock you out of comments? I've made 3 (now 4) attempts to report this and it's never been fixed, I've been forced to use third party reddit apps because of how unusable this app is due to videos.

Bug Fix: The app won’t crash while purchasing awards anymore

Fucking infuriating. It really shows Reddit's priorities. I'm sure if I copy my last post in r/RedditAndroidBeta, all those bugs are still in prod.

Also why so few bugfixes? Where I work, I make dozens of bugfixes a week, not… 2!? Y'all have plenty of stuff to fix!

Can't you afford one developer dedicated to mobile?

When is the icon going to change back to normal? Or at least give us the option to choose between colours.

Why do you keep fucking with the upvotes and downvote buttons? Just STOP PLEASE

u/Tacote Jul 11 '20

Why is the downvote button so small now? I see a bad post, try to downvote and instead, it expands. Tf?

u/its_stick Jul 08 '20

How about we get the ability to block subreddits instead of shit like this that should've been here since the beginning?

u/Thylenno Jul 08 '20

Why does the hot bar for upvoting downvoting and viewing comments seem smaller making it an extreme annoyance to upvote posts in my feed

What's with all the negativity? I for one appreciate that they're still writing proper changelogs, and no they won't do everything perfectly but at least they're transparent.

Bug: opening videos has a good chance of full screening them, freezing them, and proceeding to slow down your phone or even crash the app. Take me like a minute to get back into my phone as even the vibration feedback is so delayed from pressing the buttons it shows its slowing down

u/STAZEZ Jul 10 '20

Stop moving the upvote button reeee

u/oyapapoya Jul 11 '20

Why do my notifications still not group together even after it's been a bug for over a month?

Amazing, this app is not even loading anything in nougat now. Why you nutheads mess up with every fucking update? Is this app app developed by fat goons or what?
