Bugged af

Lagged screen , doesn’t load anything

new layout prevents me from seeing important details about my orders!!!

i’ve used this app for years and have loved it - BUT THE LAYOUT UPDATE HAS CAUSED ISSUES :

on iphone , when i click on an order to view details i can no longer see the full details of which options were selected by the customer (in my listings i make use of multiple drop down selections). Only around 20 letters are visible which does NOT give me all the information i need to fulfill my orders. This section NEEDS to show the full details regardless of character length.

overall the new layout is unnecessary and makes the app as a whole harder to use , or in some cases useless. I need the app to FUNCTION and do not want a focus on new aesthetics as this is only damaging what was there previously.

Crashes

The app hasn’t worked in quite some time. Crashes upon opening app.

Notification count issue

The icon shows the number of orders received but there seems to be an error where it double counts. One order comes in and the icon shows 2. When you go into the app and come out it corrects itself, but it’s confusing and would be good if it was fixed.
