It's a bit disappointing to see no new design or updates. I was hoping for some fresh changes. Perhaps there are plans for improvements in the future. I appreciate the current functionality, but a visual refresh would be welcome. Looking forward...
It's the same old story; maybe they don't take as long, but they always give absolute priority to the newest device...
