UI Nightmare – Slide for Reddit Review

Lures you in with the good looks, but: - Can’t tap/swipe outside pop ups for comments to close (universal expected behavior), need to scroll up for X...but not too slow! - Breaking their own convention, you have to swipe away subreddit info screens, no X. And tons of other inconsistencies. - Subreddits you don’t subscribe to open in miniature pop out like comments. Waste of space. - In fact poor use of space all over. - Settings are vague and don’t explain what they do. - Settings are organized so related items are in completely different screens. - Disregard for Apple design language. I am a UX designer. This app clearly doesn’t employ anyone in that position or, if they are, are being ripped off and stolen from. Right now they’re getting by on the lack of options and poor official app. Combine this with eye-candy to catch the lay person’s gaze.
