- Technical regressions (text clearing) in the latest update erode the daily active habit, which compounds the rating drag already visible on Android.
- Offensive advertisement content in the free tier creates a negative experience, driving frustration among users who currently lack a paid removal option.
The SWOT

- Introduce paid ad-free tier to capture revenue
