Yo, what happened to the icons down the bottom?

Is it just me or do they all of a sudden look…I dunno, chintzy? I miss the Traverse icon too…

Yeah Traverse was cool, but I think the new way for managing communities looks much more professional

I like the new setup, but I'm not loving the red notification blob

- Yeah feeling the same, it’s a bit intense. I don’t think it needs the number, especially because it could quickly become 2-3 digits on a post that’s trending, making it bigger again. Perhaps just a small red dot instead.

I downgraded to 0.3 to take a screenshot for comparison. The text is much larger, as are the icons. The icons also appear to be bold, and the feed icon is busier. The colour is also much whiter than the grey it was before. The profile text has been replaced with the username, understandably because of profile switching but it’s always going to have issues with longer names. I think changing those things back, and maybe using the traverse icon for the profile tab could be nice.

Edit: Being able to switch accounts my tapping on my profile on the profile page could be more intuitive than long pressing that icon as well. With the arrow like on the feed page’s title to show there’s options on tap.

- Yeah the size seems off like you said. Also there seem to be a mosh mash of icons through the app. I’m sure it’ll get cleaned up. There are many people contributing so it’s bound to happen.

  Yeah definitely, I just thought I’d provide some feedback. :)

- I know, I did read the release notes. I’m saying I miss the icon. It feels like a bunch of icons changed, I think the reply to comment one is different too.
  
  Edit: Yeah, the old icon style is still there on swipe.
