https://www.newschoolers.com/videos/watch/1043483/trim-8A53A9DF-BE8D-4F13-AC75-833D626FF7D7-MOVAfter watching a video in landscape, when the video ends and jumps back to the home page, the app stays landscape and you can’t do anything. Can’t scroll or click back onto the video to fix it. You just have to reset the app and then reload it. Fixable? It’s been happening for the last month or so

The mobile app freezes for me all the damn time. Regardless of whether or not I'm watching a video. I have to restart the whole app when this happens.


My phone is ancient, but I have a hunch that's not the problem because other apps work fine

eheath said recently that it would be better to just use NS through a mobile browser if you're on a phone. Apparently the app is quite neglected lately from a development standpoint

That is a shame, I way prefer using the app (aside from this video bug)

The NS only works vertically. However, when you watch a video on landscape and forget to close the player before it ends, NS app gets stucks. The video player does not automatically reset after the video is done and closes.
The whole phone gets stuck on landscape and gotta close down the NS app to make it work again.

The other bug is when you close NS app, then resume the session, the app can freeze at anytime. But, if you remove the app from cache, then start it up again, its stable
