Hello,

As the TF version specifically asked for feedback on a couple of points that I've noticed differences, here we are.

  1. ~~Performance: it feels less fluid than before on my iPhone 14 Pro. Not game-breaking, but scrolling is slower (it feels like it never uses 120Hz scrolling now), some actions (voting/saving) feel slower or take multiple taps to register/happen~~ (I was wrong about this, the TF version is visibly faster than the App Store one) and I've noticed quite a lot of videos not loading at all (usually NSFW ones). The player becomes irresponsive and in some cases I've had to reload the app to resume using it.

  2. Fonts: I'm not sure if the iPhone 14 Pro is considered small, and I use the font size slider at the 3rd point from the left, but the layout is slightly different. The fonts are larger than before, but if I move the slider one point to the left, they get smaller than before.

And one extra thing I've noticed: there is no way to scroll back to the top of a community or feed without triggering a reload. Is this intended?

Thank you though, this app keeps getting better.

Personally, I find the pull to refresh is triggered far too easily. When I’m not scrolling very far I do it manually, and I always end up triggering pull to refresh.

Edit: just saw your response below to another person. I should read before commenting 🤦🏻‍♂️. If it helps, I’m on an iPhone 14 Pro Max and my refresh is very sensitive.

Hmm, I think the problem is that Avelon doesn't require an actual touch to trigger the refresh, so if you swipe fast enough the "bounce" reaches the trigger point and refreshes. Most other apps only trigger if you're touching the screen, so I think I'll do that as well as increasing the limit a bit. Thanks!

Same device, same issue. I feel like I barely touch it and it refreshes. Loving the app so far!
