Just because the tool isn't the right tool for your job means nothing about how good it is. graph databases aren't the best at searching large singular tables, but that doesn't make them useless.

And it definitely shows: performance is less than stellar, and it definitely doesn't feel like a native app to me (on Android, at least). Edit: It looks like the iOS version is built using React Native, but the Android one is not. I can't comment on the iOS version as I've never used it.
