App is crashing and will not allow me to submit feedback.


Newest update crashes it
BrokenHeartedTrader

The app doesn’t stop crashing and hasn’t since the most recent update. I know you will fix it and when you do I’ll change it to five stars


Crashes all the time

Can’t open posts.

Last week had issues where app would crash when open video posts. Now whole app freezes and I can click any posts. I can upvote posts but can click to open it


Too many bugs

Been using bacon reader for years. First, gifs would crash the reader. Now tapping comments will randomly do nothing, nearly a week and core functionality is broken, it’s time to move on.


The app freezes when tapping on posts sometimes

Since the new update, when I swipe back from a post to the subreddit, I’m not able to click any new posts. I’m wondering if there’s an invisible transparent ad layer that’s blocking me, or some type of responsiveness issue?


Not sure what’s going on with this app

It used to be pretty reliable, but over the last couple months I’ve seen an increase in issues. 1) Locking up or stuttering during swipe up/down scroll inputs. 2) Keyboard lag despite resetting iOS keyboard and dictionary. 3) If you so much as breathe on an ad it opens. I’m fine with the ads, NBD, but they’re set differently than scrolling, they open even if you touch them for scrolling. That’s just stupid. 4) Lingering badges for messages. It’s been weeks with some form of stuck badges saying I have messages or replies that are not viewed. I’ve checked via other reddit apps or on a computer, nothing’s there, yet the badges persist. 5) dumps comments into drafts without posting them. I’ll be typing out a reply and by some weird glitch the screen will change showing keyboard disappearing and front page, and my reply will be thrown into a draft. Or I’ll hit “submit” and it will be sent to drafts. Really frustrating to wonder why you haven’t gotten any replies only to find out the app glitched and never sent your reply in the first place. Also, it seems to double all drafts. There’s 2 of each post. It’s been a pretty good app, but issues are mounting. Edit: this app just keeps having issues. It hasn’t worked without issues for years now. 1 & 2 keep happening and its been over a year since my previous review of the app. 3 & 4 are finally fixed, as well as the drafts issue. But now video clip playback stalls, and once a clip as been tapped for viewing from the main feed Instead of viewing the post and then tapping the clip I can no longer open any posts. Tapping clips or links works, but the posts won’t open. Have to swipe the app closed and re-open and start again.
