Grumble, Grumble, Sigh…

Clapping and crying … because you know it didn’t work…

Hey y’all,

If I haven’t highlighted or clapped for you story, it’s not because I haven’t tried. Medium has released an update for the Android app, and clapping and highlighting are broken … again.

Just when I finally gave in and signed up for the Partner Program too.

Sigh,

Jim

P.S. If this issue is affecting you too, it would be most helpful if you could could email yourfriends@medium.com with details of the story you tried to clap for or highlight, the approximate time you tried, and some details about the device you were using.
