I have always felt like I was mostly alone and words has always been there to comfort me either in music form, words from someone or myself or via text. Downloading medium has made me discover many people that are also in my situation and it made my view of the world change. I am glad that this app exist for us to express ourselves and also be understood my many. Overall I love this app with my whole heart ❤️
Few improvements would be great to see

I generally like this app, mostly because of the great community of writers that I encountered here so far who create type of content that I appreciate. The things this app misses is improved handling of reading experience, my frequent problem is that I’m unable to finish an article in one go and when I come back to app later it reloads from ground up like it was started up first time and doesn’t take me to my article. This oddity I'd be able to tolerate if the app would remember where I left article and be able to continue reading it on from that same point. Otherwise, I am in the state where I’m recommending this app to friends for reading and I like it.
Requires IOS 16.0

I’ve used this app for quite sometime now and i am a big fan of it. But suddenly one day it asked me to update and I couldn’t do so because the new update required the phone to have IOS 16.0 and my phone CANNOT update to IOS 16.0 and above.So what do i do in this situation? The app is such a great app for reading purposes but you’re making it less accessible to those who cannot update & use it. Sure, we do have the website, but using the app is so much more easier and convenient. It’s sad that i can no longer use the app because of the inability to update it.
Quality reading!
