Many options the iOS version should have...
There are a couple of things I cannot stand about the Google+ app, specifically for iOS.
For iOS, why aren’t we able to pin posts still? I don’t understand why it’s so hard to add that feature, I like that feature a lot, and there’s no reason that it should just be on the android version and not the iOS version. NONE.
Also, Google+ takes up SO much cellular data. For example, if I use Tumblr, it is a lot more responsive and more fast on LTE than on Google+, like it loads images faster and takes up less data. I’d really like it if you improved the performance of Google+ through LTE. Because I love this app, and I’d like to use it throughout the day without it taking so darn long to load on LTE.
Another is the blue links. I’ve noticed that on iOS, like if there’s a blue link to let’s say another Google+ user’s account posted. You cannot just click the link and go to it, that’s honestly very frustrating and that needs to be fixed.
Also, I don’t understand why we cannot have the option to copy a link of a user’s account on the iOS version. Like when you click the three dots on the person’s profile, on Android it gives you the option to copy the link to the clipboard. It’s a very helpful feature that would also improve the issue with the blue links not working correctly. Please add this feature. Seriously.
Also, I’d like the feature where we can view our followers through a list, rather than the circular icons. Because sometimes I don’t get the notification for when someone follows me, and this feature (that’s on Android only currently) and is a very useful feature so I can check and see if there’s someone following me that I didn’t know about. Like the list on android, it shows all of your circles, and followers. And it also shows followers that followed you and you still haven’t followed them back. Please add this feature as well.
Also, you seriously need to fix Google+ with the font size. I have noticed that when I make the font size bigger or smaller, the Google+ app just stays at the default font size. This should be fixed because I have an iPhone SE, and the fact that I can’t make the font size smaller (which would also fit more content on the screen) is very dumb. This would be useful especially for users like me who have a smaller sized iPhone.
The GIFs, on Android I am able to click the GIF once, and it immediately loads. Even when I go back to the home page. On iOS, you have the to click the GIF so many times for it to play, and even then, it still struggles playing. Fix this please, because I seriously I’m getting very annoyed by this issue being ignored.
These things that I’ve listed, if they’re fixed/added, it would make the iOS version SO much better. So please, take the time to do this, because I love Google+ and I want to have the same (if not better) experience on iOS.
