But in few places strange user experience: e.g. opening app pauses spotify… why?

Localization: ask questions and dialogs based on GeoIP, not based on user’s preferences. In bilingual countries defaults to single language, worst user experience. Auth: FaceTime doesn’t work, constantly asking to enter totp code from auth app. Making user less and less likely to open app

Now the “home” in app got completely broken. It shows subset of subscribed community posts which are ages old, plus ads plus other “suggestions”. Refresh can’t bring new posts to “home” section anymore. Only by individually going to each community you can see new posts. And if you have dozens, well, it became unusable. App only shows posts what advertising algorithms want you to see.

Latest update got broken somehow: on app switch between teams and other apps, trams often crashes or disconnects the call. On switching back to teams, often 3-5 seconds delays before app starts to respond on anything. Became completely unusable in last few days…

Even if phone and camera exactly on the same wifi network, app is refusing to download timelapses from albums :( buggy. App support is practically non-existing: calling by phone only to report bugs is nonsense in 2021: no email to send logs or screenshots, no ticketing systems. Only useless “knowledge base” and “call us by phone”.

App is good, but it really annoys with pop-up with asking geolocation to be always on. If user dor some reason decides to share location only in certain periods, it must be option for it. Otherwise it will be in "never" position settings.

Current version started to show unrelated notifications and icon stickers a lot more often than it should be. It is understandable that app developers want you to get attention inside their app 24x7... but after calling 100 times "wolf", people will not react on real wolf. Attention of user costs a lot, and this app made me to disable notifications from it completely.

Good idea of app, but hey, I don't want to have GPS tracking switched on ALWAYS. Make a setting to use geolocation only when app in use.
