On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

8 issues
  • App is egregiously slow, buggy, and lack of async makes it painful to use
  • Lag is extremely extremely bad, like a 5 second hang delay where the app locks up because they aren't using async operations
  • Issue when you want to remove items from your cart. If you swipe to delete it stays on this swiped action/delete for the items left in the cart until you fully exit/close the app and go back in.
  • Tried to search my favorite cigar using the app and no products were found
  • Needs an option to sort price high-low, low-high.
