Specifically, for Android users, can you download it and report back on two things.
1) Is the initial load time faster?
2) When scrolling the home feed, does it hang up or does it scroll smoothly?
Thanks!

The trade off is Foto will take longer to build, but the pay off is you’ll get something unique, free from shareholders demanding a return on their investment.
Thanks to everyone that has supported us the past 3 years and continues to support us. We are in this for the long haul! ❤️
