Looks great, but... – Burst for reddit Review

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.
