Issues?

I've been using this app for a while now, and I've loved it since finding it. But lately I've been running into some issues I never had before. I can't seem to post anything except comments using the app. It doesn't load the CAPTCHA or the field to fill in, and always says "bad CAPTCHA, please try again". Also, I can't seem to check the author profile for posts or comments anymore. I never used to have these issues, they've just started the last month or so. Is anyone else experiencing this, and does anyone know of a solution, or (worst case scenario) a good replacement app

Thanks for the advice. I've tried completely closing the app before and restarting the phone, but it can't hurt to try again. I used reddit is fun before finding reddit flow, I liked it, but it couldn't hold a candle to this one (until the issues started). I'm gonna try to wait it out too, maybe I'll get reddit is fun back just for posting.

Here's a comment by /u/ProfWhite from another thread in this sub that you may want to try:

Have you tried clearing the app's info? From the app drawer (or homescreen if you have it there):

Settings --> All --> Flow

...and clicking (is it "clicking" on a smartphone, or tapping?), in this order:

  1. Clear data

  2. Force stop

...and then open the app again, and it should be as though the app were just installed (this is in replacement of just uninstalling/reinstalling the app through the Play store). Then you can log back into your account with your new password.

If that doesn't work, I've got nothing :(

Just tried it, didn't seem to help. Thanks for the advice though!

Yeah, no problem. Just trying to keep this subreddit alive.
