First and foremost tell them to add Flip functionality as opposed to scrolling. That will make all their users keep their cool for the time being. Also if they complain its difficult, ask them to seek help from Microsoft and they will definitely get it done.

I don't mind the scrolling. Maybe it's a WP platform limitation. haven't seen an app that does the flipping on WP.

But I agree with OP. if they could speed up the initial loading, that'd be good. It shows a black screen with the spinner every time i open the app.

hello to everyone:

just today sent the e mail to flipboard

here is what the e mail contains

"

Hello Flipboard support :

i am getting touch with you for tell and give feedback of the application for Windows Phone Platform in the case Windows Phone 8.1 and wish gave my suggestions.

first , we wish if can fix the aesthetic way of move around the application, we want the flip instead of the scroll for watch the articles.

second we want that get fixed the long periods of time when the display is locked and later we get an too long the application resuming , Also in Android the loading of the articles is fast why in Windows Phone application when start the application by first time takes long time in a black display ad the dots moving while load the articles, should the application experience in Windows Phone the same as the version for Android and IOS in fact in Windows 8 and 8.1 for computers no problems but the smartphone version works bad.

also the articles which contains videos are shown with a black window and when try of watch the video get a decoding error and can not watch the video

in conclusion we want the same homogeneous experience across platforms not matter if we use Windows Phone, Windows for x86-x64, IOS or Android.

best regards"

well just i hope we get heard.

best regards
Francisco

Thank you very much for following up with us and giving us more feedback. As mentioned earlier we thought the scroll would be more suitable for the Windows Phone. However, I will make sure your all your feedback and suggestions gets passed on to or Windows team. Hope you still enjoy the app!

i just replied that should consider change the application name to Scrollboard because is what we find in the application
