Review summary

Users appreciate Graysky for its clean interface, smooth performance, and extra useful features like GIFs and translation, along with responsive developer engagement. However, major complaints include an inability to add or save feeds leading to empty timelines, absence of direct messaging and notifications, frequent crashes on some devices, and limited customization such as no landscape mode. These recurring issues hinder usability despite the app's promising design and features.

Currently two main issues: 1. Pressing "+ Save" on a feed doesn't yet add the feed to your homepage. 2. No support for sending/receiving DM's. Those aside, it's a great app!

Couldn't add save any feeds despite reinstalling the app. Would click the button and nothing would happen. it should really just auto add any feeds you've liked instead of having some seperate save feature that doesn't work.

It's simple to use. No stupid add pop up's. The only thing is that you can't do long posts or add on to posts before posting.

Doesn't handle displaying replies or reposts from people you follow as cleanly as the main app (seems to repeat more), but I like it doesn't have the button for the top of the feed in a bad spot like the main app does.

Half baked. Feeds page does not work. Looks clean though.

it works (kinda?). I tried this app out first before the native client, and I thought I liked it but the Feeds tab never worked (keeps telling me welcome and add feeds to get started). I also can't seem to find messages? so I installed the native BlueSky app today, where the Feeds tab shows my main 4 feeds properly, I could find messages very easily, and then I also realized that I like the layout better than this app. so I can say the app works, but it could work better.

Saves images to the camera roll with no option to change it to a different folder, the same problem I have with the regular bluesky app.
