I have a 5C, and in using the app with ~3 saved pages and a few days of history, and maybe 10 recommendations in my feed, I experienced the following:

  • VERY slow start-up times. In one case 28s from icon tap to real usability.
  • Lag switching between tabs. Once the tab loads things are smooth, but there's a noticeable delay on first switch.
  • Images in the feed that disappear and reappear on scrolling, even though they should be cached.

Performance related feedback from beta users, when asked what they would improve about the app:
"Speed of page loading and response"
"image loading"
