Smoother performance now with few login problems. But sometimes, as today, certain sections do not open, only showing a blank white page. Today the Chiefs section was dead. Uninstalling and reinstalling now. Also the icon did not reappear on my home screen upon reinstallation.

app keeps asking me log in. I'm going to cancel my subscription due to this ineptitude
