Maybe just me, but I can't tell the difference between which page has been read or is the most recent. Pages that were the newest or unread used to have the number bolded. That was an easy visual cue.

Since all thread page numbers now have the same font emphasis, its not clear where you are or if what you're reading is the most current.

It's not just you 😃 On the AndroidCentral App. If a thread has a unread post, it appears in bold. This is definitely really helpful. I also wish it was available on the iMore App.

For now, I just go to the 'Participated' tab at the top and look in the 'preview' window for each thread if my comment was the last one. Which is OK but not ideal.

You can use the 3 little dots next to each thread which will display a couple options like 'jump to most recent' or 'jump to first unread'. But as you said, would still be nice to have a visual indication if the thread has unread posts 😃

I really wish the 'quick reply' feature available in the iMore App was brought to the CB , AC & WC Apps.

It's really, really awesome to have it at the bottom of the screen and not at the bottom of the thread page.

That requires you to scroll all the way to the bottom to reply which can be a lot of swiping depending how long the thread is 😃

So there are cons and pros in each App. (For me at least)

Perfect example. The Android Central website based forums also has the unread page numbers as bold. Used to be the same here. Seems like a recent change.

I agree.
Good Luck
