When scrolling I keep getting Amazon opening up, no actual Amazon on the threads to click

Out of nowhere just get a. Amazon page taken over, which I have to close.
There's no ad or link I'm accidentally clicking in sight.
Anyone else. Just the last couple of days.

I get this (iPhone App), I thought it was because I keep catch the Amazon ads between posts.

Ok thanks for letting me know

@Tcateh we'll let you know as soon as we release this fix on the Android version - hopefully that will sort things out for you (even if you're not seeing the ads).

I haven't clicked on any ads, what I mean is there have been no ads seen, to actually accidentally click on at all!

Yes me too - I must accidentally open Amazon 5-6 times a thread!

Hi all,

We're sorry this issue has been affecting so many of you.

Just letting you know that we released a new version of the iOS app this morning that means these ads should only open if you deliberately click on them.

The app should update automatically, but if you're still experiencing problems please go to the App store and click on the Update button.

We're currently testing the new build on Android and aim to get that released as soon as possible.

Thanks for bearing with us!

Same here on iPhone

It's really horrible isn't it, I've just tried reading some threads but I think after I've posted this I'll just give up for the day, the constant opening and closing of the Amazon page for no reason is making it too hard to read.

Ah ok I'm not alone then, it is very weird isn't it?

Me too. Thought it was just me!

Same here, iPhone.
