Ratings & Reviews
This app has not received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Fixed the Shorts star and archive buttons saving to each other's lists, so saved videos never showed up in Starred or Archive.
Fixed author profile taps in the reader appearing to do nothing — the reader now closes and takes you straight to the profile.
Fixed share link creation failing repeatedly after a cold start on a flaky network.
Tap attached images on the feedback screen to view them full size.
