Extremely laggy + clunky UX
1. Clunky UX. Example: to add a dose you’d expect an easy obvious button available everywhere. Instead on the home screen only, there’s a plus button all the way in the top right hardest to reach place. Tapping it doesn’t let you add a dose! Instead it takes you into a multi-stage flow for adding a type of medicine. To add a dose you tap what looks like a little cupboard next to it, to open a list of meds you added which slides in veerry slowly. Tapping leads to another incredibly slow slide out. Then delay. Then finally it appears to be done. If you need to add several together, you have to repeat one at a time. If you need to add one from say 30 mins ago you can’t and have to schlepp over to a separate ‘history’ tab.
2. Latest version is unusably slow and laggy, with no indication that it’s actually doing anything. Examples:
- just first launching the app, checks Face ID, then several seconds delay showing what appears to be the same first launch screen with an ‘Unlock with Face ID’ button - looks like login failed without error and you need to try again…but you can’t, and ~5-6 seconds later you see a loading spinner after which you actually get the app home screen.
- tapping to add a dose on the history tab: you select from list, add time, etc then tap button to add…nothing. No activity indicator, loading spinner, nothing. So you think maybe you missed the button and tap again - again nothing. Then after an eternity, suddenly that view abruptly closes, and after some laggy scrolling down you see two identical doses have been added! No you go through another laggy process to delete one.
