Love the app...wish it didnt have recent update with post swiping

I really love this app, the only bad things about it in the most recent update is that now instead of swiping a comment to upload it, you have to hold your finger over it and then select to upload it or download it. The old system was a lot better where you would swipe it to upvote it. It’s practically annoying now because on looking at a sub Reddit, you upload a individual post by swiping, but you can only upvote a comment by holding. I extremely dislike how it is incongruent between the sub Reddit versus the individual posts. The other thing that I don’t like about it is that you can’t copy a text item from it. For instance you can’t hold your finger over an original post’s text, select individual text to copy it so you can paste it into another application, email or something like that. That’s extremely upsetting especially in that they are actively going against that ability with the most recent update.
Why oh why would you change

Seems like they are feeling the pressure from Apollo to provide a super complicated UI that wastes screen space (compact mode still has lines dedicated to just naming the user...) Not only that but if you’re going to go that route you should at least provide the customization options they do...
New voting method doesn’t work.

New method doesn’t work. Tapping just collapses the comment and the app is overall slower than it used to be. Will be looking for a new app.
Why is username up top and sub at the bottom?

Makes more sense to have title up top, then sub, then user.
Absolutely hate the new layout.

I’ve had this app for 3+ years and it’s been my preferred method for reddit browsing. Simple, sleek and no-frills. Absolutely hate the new layout you’ve decided to force. Adds two lines of text to each post on list mode and draws the eye away from the actual content. What used to be a simple and compact horizontal viewer now forces your eye to the vertical which, in my opinion, completely clogs up the page with info you could access easily with just a swipe (the intuitive controls is what made your app special.) Now it’s just as clunky as the next reddit browsing app, which I’ll certainly be moving to. So long BaconReader, it was good while it lasted. At least give us the option to keep the old layout which I loved so much.
Update

Loving the update. New features are great. The only reddit app that you can swipe post to post. Love that feature the most.
The UI isn’t simple and intuitive anymore

Can you guys stop updating this app to where it looks more and more horrible each time?
love it but very disappointed in newest changes
shupah
been using this app for a couple of years. great support. just pay the couple of bucks for the premium. it's worth it! UPDATE: these new changes make me unable to up/downvote posts that are longer than the length of my phones screen. please fix UPDATE 11/2017 from bad to worse. now the app looks as cluttered as every other reddit app. im considering myself on the market again..
