Mechanical Issues

While it is mostly good, the app has the problem of immediately undoing your editing with the back button, which is a nuisance. There are also some problems with editing where it doesn’t sync up to the site.

Please update this to iPad

on iPad the guest button is completely inaccessible. The font is so small on iPhone. Now you can’t use online tvtropes with adblockers on. Thanks a lot. When you search for something pass the first search, it always zooms in max for some reason.

Love the site, app needs work

The app is great because it hosts all of the content of the site however, all of said content is a little harder to navigate paired with a buggier ui. Would love to see this app get the care that it needs, great otherwise.

Needs Work

I like it. It’s easy to use, but could use some fine tuning here and there. One bug that’s been bothering me is how the app annoyingly zooms in on the search bar whenever I search more than one term. I’d rly appreciate if you were to fix that.
