The recent redesign update resulted in a strongly negative impact on the Android platform. Authentication failures following the update drove a 0.7 star decline in average ratings, dropping from 4.03 to 3.33. The attempt to improve retention through a new login process backfired by creating a critical barrier to entry.

How it played out

Retrospective analysisOctober 15, 2026

The average rating declined by 0.7 stars following the update, driven by user reports of broken authentication flows that prevent account access. While the update intended to improve retention, the current login process creates a barrier that forces users to abandon the app. Momentum is weakening as these technical regressions overshadow the existing content value.

Marlvel takeaways

  • Roll back the authentication flow to the previous version to restore account access for Android users.
  • Investigate the specific technical failure points in the login process identified by users post-update.
  • Prioritize stability patches over interface changes to recover the 4.03 baseline rating.
