App freezing and no alerts

I've been having trouble for the past couple of weeks with the app freezing up on me. After 1-5 mins in the app, the page will freeze whether I'm browsing, reading or responding (messages and the forums). I've tried restarting my phone and also uninstalling than reinstalling the app - none of which worked.

Anyone else having these problems?

I love this app, but I rarely use it anymore since the freezing keeps happening that I can't read through threads I'm interested in or respond to conversations without getting stuck.

Any help would be appreciated!

PS, to type this out I drafted it in an email than copied and pasted to try to submit this before it freezes. The first time I tried to write it out I got stuck mid-way through

PPS, I also stopped receive notifications regarding messages and forums even though I didn't update my settings - not sure if anyone is having that problem either!

I am having the same issues especially at night perhaps too many people on. The app stutters and freezes.

I use an iPhone.

@alexbrecher any ideas ?

Just got a "tagged" notification for your post. Was that via the app or site ?

It was via the app. But the app is still freezing or stuttering is more appropriate word for it right now.

For instance start typing a word and app freezes for a few seconds and then it types out.

Does that every few words

Ok I have seen people tag me but haven't seen any notifications.....
