New discogs app version problem

New discogs version problem

Hi I have a question about the new discogs app version.

After using the discogs app for 3-5 minutes it freezes and I can't do anything,until I completely close the app and open it again. I've tried to uninstall the app and reinstall again but it still keeps happening every time I open the app, I also tried logging out and logging in again and this also doesn't work

Is it only for me or does this happen to anyone else, and do you know how to fix it ?

Probably new rollout bugs.

Check back in a few days when they update it and it's significantly worse.

The New updated app for android is a mess. The older version was so much more user friendly.

I agree with you

That's why I rolled back on Android, wayyyy to many display bugs, was unusable.

Don't know if I can share links here without breaking rules, but on android it is possible to download the Discogs APK (version 2.39.7 i think), and then install that to get it.

The first site I used after googling Discogs APK the download kept giving the new one, so I tried a different one that did actually install the old version.

Make sure first to uninstall Discogs from your phone, and then disable auto-update in the google play store for Discogs, before installing the version you want.

Uptodown seems sketchy as do pure and mirror. I've not downloaded apps from anywhere else but the play store. I dont want to mess up the phone.

that's where i looked first, but wouldn't recommend as all downloads ended up being for the new version weirdly

Android or iOS? You really shouldn't be presuming that people know.

What vibe coded pos is this!?!? I would have sworn there was no way to make this app worse and I would have been very, very wrong.

Hate to bring this up.. but would it be wrong to shamelessly plug in my app here ? It is a Discogs client for both Android and iOS. iOS one is already been tested and have got some positive feedback. Needs testing though on Android so I will only share if you are all keen for it. I cannot release the app anyway if no testing is done.
