### 1/5 — Не грузит

*2026-06-13*

Ничего не работает

### 2/5 — Глючит

*2026-04-14*

Все зависает, невозможно ничего просмотреть. Очевидно, что приложение не тянет вообще такое количество информации

**Developer response:** Добрый день, с количеством информации проблем у приложения нет - оно оптимизировано запрашивать только необзодимую информацию и умеет ее кэшировать для ускорения работы. Проблема в последнее время бывает с доступностью источника информации увы (( Если приложение долго не грузит фото - проверьте доступен ли сам pastvu.com в браузере.
Если проблемы остаются - напишите на vtezin@gmail.com (можно и из приложения). Будем решать. Хорошего дня!

### 5/5 — Pastvu top!

*2025-01-01*

Крутое приложение с множеством старых фотографий, работает чётко
