Thanks, apologies for your loss in productivity. :P Great criticism too, re: notifications being a bit slow, that's something I'm working to improve; being an iOS dev the backend web stuff isn't my strongest programming suit, so I'm working to improve that or at least get someone who knows more to be able to help me there. Chat's a little trickier, I've talked to Reddit about that and they don't seem particularly interested in granting access to third party devs for whatever reason, even though they have an open API for basically everything else, and they said a few years back they were looking into it.

Hey! I know you’re working on it. I should have mentioned how good you are about community engagement and accepting feedback; we’ve interacted on other channels and a couple of my suggestions got in the app. :)

Is there or could there be a way to disable the Home and All buttons? I find Reddit to be much less of a time suck if I’m going to specific subreddits and reading interesting content, but I often just mindlessly browse All without thinking. I had to remove Apollo from my phone (even though I paid for it!) because I often find myself spending too much time doing nothing. My current solution is bookmarking a bunch of i.reddit.com URLs in Safari, but the experience is really poor. Thanks for making an app that I used for far too many hours.

  I think it would be interesting to disable the infinite scroll and either having a button to load the next page or disable loading the next page entirely.

    Never thought about it before, but that makes a lot of sense. The act of choosing to load another page might be enough for me to realise I should have gone to sleep about 2 hours prior.

How about fixing Apollo's existing messaging features first anyways? It is very frustrating to use.

  Could you elaborate?

    Refreshing the inbox tab is very hit or miss: one refresh I'll see a message, next refresh it will disappear. Often when I receive a message, going into the chat view does not display the message until after multiple attempts.
