Burst for reddit for Negative User Reviews

✓ It's an interesting concept but the app is really slowThis is more for the developer than other users. Update: I’m using a 6s+ First off the UI is really interesting. The problem is it's unpolished and can be very slow. For example, I tap an image. The app does nothing. I tap again, still nothing, I tap again and the image vc animates 3 times. I would love to see a larger preview of images so I don't need to tap every image. Lastly presenting comments from multiple subreddits is great. I think the UI could be improved like this: R/subredditName Top comment See more comments from this community button Then repeat that below with the next community. The swiping between subreddits doesn't work for me. I could go on but this is already to long..IKoh37Version: 1.9

✓ Good idea, force touch is non existentAlthough I like the app as an idea, there is a big force touch bug that is infuriating to use especially Because that's how your supposed to use the app anyway. When opening the app for the first time, there is a fake subreddit, or is very hard to find, telling you how to use the app. It's just simply not a good client Note, I do have an X and I have seen a couple other apps not be able to do 3D touch inside, so it may be an iOS bug, but other apps allow me to 3D touch so I highly doubt it. Please fix this, I would love to post an unbiased review at one point.TheBensonBoyVersion: 1.03

✓ The app would be perfect if there was a setting to view an entire comment sectionI know the entire point of the app is to burst the bubble, but I would love for there to be an option to change the way comments are view to the traditional way; burst is by far the best looking client and I would love to make it my daily driver, but the comment viewing is too tedious. Great app otherwise!.Inderjeet 23Version: 1.11

✓ Phone running hot when app is runningThe ui is pretty, has some major usability issues. But, my gripe is the iphone 7 is running considerably hot when the app is running. Probably optimization issues as it is new. I will see a few days if an update will fix this. A tip to devs: If you want the “hot new top” categories as tabs make them as tabs not as swipy things..YeshesviVersion: 1.13

✓ Beautifully simple and smooth but...The Ui is so smooth and simple and looks so good however some thing I wish the app had are: 1) the option to toggle auto play for videos and gifs so you don’t have to click a post to watch the video or get redirected to an external site, 2) subreddit heading so I know what subreddit the post is from at a glance. 3) full image cards, again so you can just scroll through content. 4) hide read posts on scroll. Other than that,this client has so much potential. Update: several months later. It seems development has stopped. Update: year later. Nothing.Okami808Version: 1.16

✓ BuggyI really like the interface but the app needs work. Audio from videos continues to play after leaving the built in viewer. The app begins to lag the further down the rabbit hole you go, which can cause multiple instances of images opening—which each have to be individually closed. If comment threads are long, the furthest down posts do not load. The concept and design are both fantastic, but it needs work..ChaahlzVersion: 1.14

✓ Missing a lot of featuresNo startup guide on how to use. Can’t hold on images to save, can’t remove add subreddits, no settings bar to customise feed colors, design.TonyStark⠀Version: 1.12

✓ DearThe Buttons on the bottom of the screen aren’t centered man.ArchartieVersion: 1.13

✓ Can’t log inAfter clicking “Allow” I get a spinner forever and it never logs me in..FtganderVersion: 1.16

✓ Good, but needs more optionsThis app is beautiful. I love the UI in every way. But I have a couple complaints. I want to turn off the repost merging functionality as well as add what sub the post is from in the feed. If those two things were added, this would be my 100% daily reddit driver..Fite4DIMONDZVersion: 1.15

✓ Suggestion to DevTbh, from my own opinion, the futuristic layout is a fundamental flaw to the app. It spend much more time just to scroll down the comments section like other clients, Apollo, Reddit, etc. Since Reddit is driven by content. If an app try to be competitive than others by only differentiating layout, reading experience must be compensated. While THIS, I could say, hurt the user experience a lot On the other hand, Dev should check out every competitor. From the app what I tried before, they basically use the same layout with official one.General Jim RaynorVersion: 1.12

✓ Some improvementsI really like the idea, but I find it a little hard to use the app due to the minimal style, esp. when I want to see upvote count or which subreddit a post is in. It would be great to bring the info like OP's username, subreddit, upvote count, and time since posted from the swipe over to the front of the card. I think it could be doable without sacrificing the minimalism, and it would save time..DasMeowHausVersion: 1.13

✓ Looks great, but...First things first, this app looks amazing. The UI matches Apple’s look seamlessly. The font, colors, and edges/curves have that beautiful apple aesthetic. There are a few complaints here though. 1. Force touch is pretty buggy. 2. Videos, GIFs, and even pictures load much slower than something like Apollo or even the official Reddit app. 3. The app needs to allow us to save pictures via long press. 4. The app needs the ability to change what browser links and videos open in, say like Chrome and the YouTube app. 5. The app needs a way to quickly change the night and dark themes like the Apollo app has “quick change” 6. There needs to be a feature for multiple accounts. 7. Just another thought, but the app icon is not very distinguishable as Reddit, or a Reddit app. Maybe something as simple a the Reddit alien on the top of the blue rings would suffice to help this app noticeably be “Reddit” Honestly I think the developers need to look at their main competitor, Apollo, and try to implement several of the intuitive features there into their app and it would be perfect. I will still use this over Apollo, because I find the bubble system for comments a much easier way to follow the conversation, and because the overall app UI and theme matches the Apple UI to a dime..DavisssamuelVersion: 1.15

✓ You can't download picturesNobody wants to open up safari to just to save pictures. Needs to have an option to save pictures from preview.KeremzkVersion: 1.13

✓ Awesome app, but two problems :(I love this app. It’s buttery smooth, smartly designed, and most of all it lets me take a short dip into comments without getting lost in all of reddit. It’s definitely my favorite reddit app by far! But about a year ago I stopped using it because of two problems. And unfortunately they still exist. 1: sometimes when trying to swipe down to exit a preview, it just. Doesn’t? The image just bounces back up and you have to use the “x” button instead. Not a huge deal, but it does break the flow that makes this app so awesome. 2: and then here’s the deal breaker. About half the posts that are gifs are in horrible quality. You can see the preview which looks decent, and you can open the post in other reddit apps and have the quality you expect. But when you open it through Burst you would swear you just opened a 240p YouTube video (sometimes worse) That alone is the reason I can’t keep using this app. If it was just a low quality post that would be one thing, but when multiple other reddit apps show it in perfect quality, it’s a whole other issue. So for now I’ll be switching back to the official reddit app. But I’ll be keeping an eye on Burst in hopes of some fixes rolling out! Easy 5 star if that happens!.BrentreelVersion: 1.16

✓ 3D TouchForce Touch is the name of the technology for trackpads on the recent versions of MacBooks. On iPhones it's called 3D Touch, which isn't really the same thing (the screen can be pressed down, or at least feels like it can be pressed down)..WraithequestrainVersion: 1.14
