New TapaTalk update is TERRIBLE!

So the update from about a month ago was not perfect, but was very nice. Now they release a new update again which shows less text (which is the entire point of participating in forums), more "fancy" little bars around each thread title.....And the worst part, NO WAY to simply browse the forums like you used to be able to and obviously should be able to! You can only view the forums by "trending", "timeline" and "favorites". No way to view all threads cleanly. Very frustrating. To be honest, this update should just be cancelled

If you go to the home screen, and press the iMore icon on the top, it should show you the full forum threads. I completely hate the new look, but at least that will help you get around.

I love the update. Actually works unlike the previous update which rarely, if ever updated the stories and showed notifications for me.

I hate this update. It only just stopped crashing on me.

They need to add an option to return to a text-heavy interface. The giant threads including a sample of the last post makes the interface super-inefficient.

I hate it! I don't like the blue. It's distracting. Navigation is cumbersome. Not a good update.

Sadly, the folks at @tapatalk are actually quite proud of it - especially Ken. SMH.

This may be the worst update of an app ever. How do you go through your unread items and mark as read? I used to swipe to the left and clear the ones I didn't want to actually read. Now how do I do that? Am I missing something?

I like the update. I'm fairly new to Tapatalk so I'm digging the change.

It was better the way it was before all of these unnecessary changes. This update is better than the previous one but it keeps crashing.

Crashing like crazy. All I want is an app I can read text in. Now it looks like a billboard.

Forget it. I wiped my device and installed a backup from last night with the previous version of Tapatalk.
