Got what I was expecting.

After going over other reviews for this app, I decided to get it even though it seemed like there were some significant issues. So far, I’ve found three things that I don’t like. First, the app takes about twice as long as it should to load images, videos, etc. Second, the notifications don’t work. It says it checks for new notifcations every few minutes, but I’ve been watching people like/comment on a video I recently uploaded, and I still have zero notifications. Third, once you open the notifcation panel it does not close, no matter what you do, unless you click the notification button again. Seems like you could click somewhere else and have it close, or close when you change “albums” I guess they’re called.

Anyways, as other people have said and as it says in the description (at least twice), you cannot upload pictures/videos. I did not want this function when I downloaded it, and I still don’t want it. I just wanted a client that would allow me to check my feed, search for users and hashtags, view my profile and my friends’ profiles, etc. Four stars because it does what I want it to do plus some, but the notifcations don’t seem to work which is kind of a bummer.

EDIT: Apple made the dev get rid of the download function on the app, and because this was one of the main reasons I used this app, I have to lower my rating to 3 stars.
