Since the update a few weeks ago, this app has become very slow and cumbersome to use.

UX is good but is let down by articles opening up when you are trying to scroll up or down. This forces you to swipe on the thin lines between articles where you should be able to swipe up or down from any position.There should also be a feedback option instead of using the app review to report issues.
