I appreciate what the dev is doing, but I would say that we need better testing before the app is pushed onto the App Store. Last two weeks, we’ve had some annoying playback books where videos could not be unmute or scrubbed. And now the bottom five menu icons seem to disappear each time a user to go into the comment posting or post writing screen on iPad.

iPhone the entire interface seems to shrink at random times and then come back.

This is just a post to ask for slower lower quantity higher quality development.

Solo dev here too mate. Nothing grinds my gears more too, but one thing. Knowing my software causes grief to my non-paying users. Especially grief I didn’t intend and could have avoided.

I tried to say it as kind as possible. If these bugs continue, people will just go to an alternative and this app will just die off, and then their work would have been for nothing.

Totally understand. That being said, the title is blunt and commanding, and that is what triggered me. If that kind of comment were directed at me, I’d lose motivation instead of improving releases.
