Rewind to old app

I like the new app. It’s much clearer. But I don’t like the change to flip the thread.

New app seems very dated in appearance compared to the old one, feels like a step back rather than forward!

The white background is hurting my eyes

i also find this really annoying, please put the buttons back at the bottom of the page

Please please please let us have the old one back 🙏🙏 Far too many issues to list but I cannot use this forever I just can’t.

I honestly can’t see any issues with it at all, but then I didn’t really use the old app much. I guess it will probably be a case of just getting used to it? Maybe MN can make some tweaks to it.

The text is too big. I can adjust on my phone settings but then the text is too small everything else on my phone.
Also, when you filter to just see the op’s posts you can’t flip them.

Agree that the white background is too bright. I can’t figure out how to flip to the end of a thread either… really annoying!

Following on the flipping theme, on the old app you could see just the OP posts and flip them to see newest first. I can’t find a way to do that now, the op only filter always show oldest first which can be a long scroll to find their most recent post

I'm finding it much more cluttered and I preferred the less glaring background on the old one. This one is a bit cartoony. I like being able to see all the OP posts and the edit function though. I'd like the old look with the new functionality please!!

another voice here asking which idiot at MNHQ signed off on this new app? It looks cheap and its functionality is cheap and clunky. Just awful. I should say thanks though, as I’ve been wanting to curb my own screen time recently, so at least this crap app will be easier to step away from

This new app is awful, I can’t use it.

Honestly I'm susceptible to migraines and my eyes are straining after a few mins.

I'm baffled that the designers behind the change have thought the size and typeface were useable.

It's laughable that MN have paid anyone to come up with this as the best and final improvements to a user friendly app in this day and age.

I've been on here 20 plus years and I'm so disappointed, that it's unusable now .

😔😡

Exactly.

what you could do one handed in one area of the screen is now awkward and clunky and needs two hands.

And we can’t go back unless we use the active link on the top. Having it at the bottom like before is much better so that we can do it with one hand only……

Following as this white background hurts my eyes

The typeface is bloody awful.

The boldness of each thread title with little separation with the next thread title is really hard to read in list view.

What's happened to the bookmarking keeping your place on a watched thread, for me on android it's not taking you back to where you were . It's just taking you to the top again.

Newest first even

Can someone reply to this message please as not having the notifications in the right hand corner is confusing me and I want to see what happens

Not sure if I like this new layout or it’s just taking some getting used to. It’s more like the website which is why I use the app in the first place

stop asking me when I flip a thread if I want oldest first. Of course I do otherwise I wouldn’t be flipping

I’m not keen on the new bookmarking. Previously the swipe and bookmark icon were both on the right. Now it’s the three dots on the right and bookmark is then towards the left of the screen.

Edited to add - I also don’t like that you can’t easily go back to the top of active without scrolling, and I agree with the annoying process to flip the order of posts

You can change to black and orange via your phone settings if you have an iPhone. It’s still not great at all but it’s a definite improvement on the startling white.

The adverts seem more intrusive too.

I just want to go back to the old app; I can’t get on with this one at all. Old one was simple to use. Also font size is messed up on this new version

Also can't find how to watch a thread while I've got it open.

And I've just tried to scroll back up Active to get to this and it's glitch and all of the threads are in a different order now. Had to go through 'I'm On'.
