I used that App for a couple of weeks, last month. It crashed a lot, and I would lose my reply. Has that been fixed?

It took me a while to figure out that you need to tap on the thread title to subscribe.

Yup. Still crashes.

All new app and it isn't even scaled for the iPhone 6+. Nice.

This link should take you directly to the download screen from your tablet -- https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id964719306?mt=8

Have you tried uninstalling the app and then reinstalling? Sorry it keeps crashing on you. What phone are you using?

If you tap on the little star next to thread title you can subscribe. If you tap on the "+" over in the top right corner you'll get the option to subscribe there too along with a few other options. Dragging your finger across the screen starting from the left gets you menu access without having to back up several screens.

What is it that looks weird on your 6 plus? I've seen the app over my Android tablet, but had no problems.

The graphical UI elements seem ok, but you haven't implemented dynamic type so the text isn't the preferred size I run on my phone. It looks clunky.

I uninstalled it, and reinstalled it. Still crashes on my Droid Turbo.

I do have a weak signal.

That's an idea. Try connecting to WiFi and see what happens. I'm still reporting your crash issues to tech.

Very interesting! Haven't heard this one before. Definitely sharing this with tech. any chance you could share screen shots of what this app's font looks like for you and what an app looks like that is optimized for the 6 plus?

I appreciate the feedback! We really do want this app to work for everyone.

And thank you for your patience. We released the app sooner than we were hoping for because the old app pooped out on us. So don't be shy about improvements!

Your app on the left without dynamic type. App on the right with dynamic type. Note: I run my text at the smallest size, see that setting below.





Here is the setting on my iPhone 6+ for dynamic type:




I like to run my text small, so apps that don't take advantage of it look like yours above.

Samsung Galaxy S3 (I love the phone, no reason to get a new one).

The Garage Talk app worked perfect for me, just took a little time to learn what icons do what.
I found it was smoother and quicker than the previous IB app.
Great Job, Thanks.
