First impressions:

Will it be easy to switch between accounts? I have my own / and then I have a company account where I follow the students and leave comments with that. So far, looks like I can only sign-out / and then sign back in.

What if I want to follow that crazy political ranter guy in my email... but I don't want it in my feed in the app? It looks like there isn't a way to filter that besides unsubscribing - which will likely lead me to unsubscribe from people - that I normally wouldn't - to keep the app feed tidy.

What if I want notifications, but only for some of my favorite publications? Looks like it's just over-all so far.

Will I be able to edit a typo of mine / in the app? Doesn't look like it.

Will I have to add this app address to my Vimeo privacy/sharing so that my included videos can be embedded in it?

S the small box of files icon an archive button? As in / "here's your box of old files" - or as in "this will archive some amount of things when you press it." It's archive all. What is this bell - probably notification settings? No. It's "Activity" - of which I have none / and I do not understand. Seems like my inbox is the activity. So, maybe comments on my publication?

Again - already wishing for a filter because my inbox is showing the exact 3 publications I don't want to see on the app and nothing more.

What will pushing the substack icon do. Nothing? Seems like it should take me "home" - to what I would presume to be my inbox. Nope. But there is an icon of an incoming mail office box thing. That's the inbox. OK. Library icon - is not good. Doesn't read as a book at all. (to me) and - my list of publications - is not a "book." So - it's not a great icon to begin with / and it looks like spit pane anyway.

Still searching for a way to flip between my own accounts.

But overall - on part with Substack - and a positive move forward. However, I would have preferred to have a better signup module that we could style to match our sites / and other added features / over an iOS app.
