Default S2ki app feedback

Hello,

Was wondering if there are plans to update the app? If so, I have a few pieces of feedback that would make a huge difference in user experience:

1. Infinite scroll: example; in the new posts view, the app only loads a few threads. The user then has to click on the bottom of the screen to load more. Is there a way to preload posts, so when the user gets to the bottom, they're met with more?

2. Swiping left to access back stack: it's much more intuitive to swipe right from the left side of the screen to traverse back. Currently, the user has to tap the upper left arrow to navigate. I've caught myself multiple times swiping from the left, only to bring out the navigation pane. Maybe they should be swapped. Access navigation pane via a hamburger menu on the upper left, swipe right from left edge to go to previous screen.

3. In app notifications: for some odd reason, when clicking on the notification for new posts, there a considerable lag (2 seconds) between me tapping it and then finally shown the actual notifications. I'm on iOS, 10.3.3, but this has been the behavior of always.

Cheers,
Alex

The fact that no one even responded to this post is pretty disappointing.

Another piece of feedback; I accidentally tap on image attachments all the time, which is really annoying.

There needs to be a adjustment to the threshold of how long the user holds their finger on an image and then decided to go full screen.

The app is severely outdated; it doesn't leverage the retina display and looks pretty awful with the zoom view (or whatever it is). Please update it!

I'm assuming you guys are referring to an obsolete, dedicated s2ki app? This same thing happened with RX7Club. We had a great dedicated app, and Internet Brands said no more. All Internet Brand forums only support the GarageTalk app, which sucks big time. It's plagued with many of the problems listed above.

Now we're talking...

Back on the other app (Tapatalk), they're constantly improving and making updates. Granted there are ads, but I understand it's a necessary evil. Plus I think you can subscribe (Tapatalk) makes money to eliminate ads.

I'm using (if you can call it that) the IB "Garage Talk" app.

I left a review on the iOS App Store. By the looks of Garage Talk and all the other apps IB developed, none of them have good reviews.

I didn't even know there was an APP.

I just use Safari while browsing the website via mobile device.
