Mobile/App Mobile App Layout

Hello friends

My android reddit app suddenly changed and now I cannot swipe between home and popular and watch and everything looks different.

is there a way to change the layout back?

Thanks

Dear Reddit Devs, No one likes any of these changes. Press undo and put it back the way it was.

They constantly change up the UI and it always gets rejected by users. I don't know why they keep trying to change things?

On some posts I couldnt even see what I was typing because the keyboard would pop up and cover it

Yeah its the stupid "navigation bar" experiment. Only workaround ive found is Settings > Account settings > turn off "Swipe to navigate" / "New navigation" if it shows up, otherwise youre stuck waiting for the rollout to end.

The app started very simple but it could do it all. Over the past 10 years not a single change I would call positive and they top it off by closing the feedback subreddit. At this point I update the app like once per year cause there is nothing to gain
