So informative and handy

ReactionFlash is a very informative application. It is a very handy source of name reactions. I have been entertaining myself doing the quizzes during the nights with a beer in hand.

Please fix the landscape swiping

You can’t swipe through reactions in landscape mode without them shifting partially off screen and requiring an app reset to fix the issue. If this were fixed, the app would be super intuitive and helpful!

Hope it gets fixed!
