Love theChive, hate the app. – theCHIVE Review

TheChive will always be theChive, that will never change. They are a great community and have awesome content. This app is not just difficult to deal with it is actually detrimental to my phone. I understand that ads will be everywhere. I don’t care that they are. If I wanted an ad free experience I’d pay the $12 a year for it so I don’t really care that ads are everywhere. I just want a functional app. Galleries will not load. Ads will not play before a video or kick on halfway through a 7 second video. An ad will start to load while I am halfway through a gallery and shut off... then load... then shut off, until I close out the app and restart it. Again, I don’t mind the ads but make them work seamlessly with your product, not against it. My phone is so busy trying to handle theChive app and it’s continuous crashes and loading times that I only realize my battery has dropped 30% in the past 5 minutes because my phone is overheating. Chive. I have been on android and iPhone... your apps have failed on both accounts. Please step yo game up.
