As users of #Freerse some feedback of the things we LOVE about the client ( and which are the reasons it is one we keep coming back to) are:
-NAVIGATION/ DISCOVERY through #hashtags . For starting users it makes it easy to find new people through interests.
-ZAP CAPABILITY ON IOS (not the only client to do so, but still a plus)
-NOTIFICATIONS BY TYPE , making it easily viewable which notes are getting which kind of love 🫶 of from who.
-PREVIEW of notes before posting with easily integratable photos, videos and #gifs .
- FAST LOADING: even if it seems superflous but some clients take longer at charging the feed, and specially the notifications, but Freerse is pretty fast.
On the other hand, (with all the respect and support to the Freerse team and the work they have already done ✨🙌 ) we also disagree with the valuation that it’s a finished project that can’t be funded to improve.
Here goes some GLITCHES and WISHLIST elements that we feel could improve the user experience and onboarding people onto #nostr :
- TAGGING ISN’T WORKING , we couldn’t tag #OpenSats nor #Freerse in the app. It can’t find people efficiently.
- SEARCHING FOR PEOPLE YOU KNOW BY HANDLE: as of now, when searching for people by handle it lists a ton of people with or without that handle, and sometimes even all the scammer dopplegangers; without taking into account our web-of-trust to show users first and foremost the profile they follow or that is followed by most of their network. This could be something that makes it simpler to not fall for scammers using same names and photos and who manage to get a follow or ten.
- REMOVING UNWANTED PEOPLE FROM OUR DMS and the fact that the first screen when you open the app is DMS make starting the app the least interesting thing about it. DMS are still a problem in most clients so an easy way to block, mute or unsee the things you don’t want in your feed is an epic feature any client should have. But in Freerse it becomes more important due to the fact that it’s the first screen that opens.
-CHANGEABILITY TO FIRST FEED APPEARANCE , after having used the app a while, i often think i would love to change the START SCREEN to the Freerse tab or the Notifications tab, since currently it’s the cleanest feed we have to the actual people we want to interact with.
-TOP WISHLIST which is missing in the #nostr clients suite is being able to SCHEDULE your posts. This would be epic to be able to do on iOS devices.
In any case, thank you very much for the WONDERFUL the Freerse team has done so far. It is a client with plenty of features and hope it can get the funding to make it continue to improve in this beautiful ecosystem that is still growing 🤙⚡️💜

Good luck
I'd like to check out the app but didn't see a link to your software repo anywhere. Important for any app that deals with nsec or Bitcoin!
Thank you for writing down such detailed feedback and your support and love for Freerse. This gives us great encouragement. 💜💜💜🫂🫂🫂
Your suggestions for product improvement are very important to us. Freerse's @ function cannot directly enter the @ symbol to tag an account. This is the function we need to optimize next. There is an @ button at the bottom of the posting page for the tagging function. Click it to search for the person you want to @. But you can only @ and search for the accounts you have already followed.
Freerse has a help page, you can take a look. https://freerse.com/help-center Your other suggestions are very good, we have written them all down.
Thanks my friend 💜🫂🤙
Thank you for the great job you doing 🫶✨

Thank you for your feedback. Amber Login has always been in our follow-up development plan. It has been stalled due to the depletion of development funds. We will continue to improve these features once we get funding.🫂
