For the past few weeks, the app has been buggy to the point of almost being unusable. I always get a red "Something Went Wrong" error when I try to change rewards or manage my pledge. I have cleared my cache, uninstalled/reinstalled, and still nothing. The site seems to be okay but it's just annoying to not be able to use the app.

It looks like a nice interface, but the app is unreliable, often failing to sync and stalling. It offers no substantive advantage over using the website. Instead of just getting email updates that prompt to visit the website, I get the email, and an app alert as well. Tapping on app alerts frequently loads the app, which either stalls, or opens my web browser, which re-opens the app, which re-opens the browser, where I can finally read whatever the message was.

While I love Kickstarter and use it a lot, I find the app to be quite unusable. I constantly keep getting notifications that my app is offline, even when it isn't and this notification repeats over and over, preventing me from doing even the most basic thing such as sending messages. On many occasions, the rewards won't load. I am not sure why the app such a substandard performance.

Next, we've improved Discover filters so you can browse projects by location and amount raised.
