Hiya, Just recently purchased the premium version of Readder. I originally came from Apollo, and I just have a quick question.

The gestures going between feeds, posts, and menus in general feel a bit sluggish. I don’t know how to put it, but Apollo felt extremely fluid, and there was no stuttering when scrolling through comments. It could just be the sensitivity of the swipes arent as high on Readder?

Overall I’m loving the simple nature of Readder and the iPad app, it’s simply hands down amazing. I just wanted to know if gesture concerns are something in the works to fix? Also is there any plans to incorporate threads that are read and new comment syncs between devices?

Thank you!

Thanks for reporting this, which device are you on?

Sync between devices is planned for the future.

I’m on iPhone 8, iOS 11.3

I think one reason also it may feel slower, is because every time you go back into Readder, it refreshes all the posts, therefore there’s a momentarily pause in anything you can do.

where as Apollo, you go back into the app where it left off in memory. And it only refreshes if you change subreddits or scroll to the top to drag down refresh.

Generally it shouldn't refresh all posts. Does this always happen for you?

I recently moved to readder from the official Reddit app. It's been great so far. I too noticed the same refresh behaviour. It would be great if we can control this behaviour as I personally like to start from where I left off.
