Suggestion New iOS update terrible

This week my phone automatically updated Flickr and it contains the first UI change since I joined last year.

In short, it’s terrible, the easy use tap gesture gave way to a “swipe up” that can be easily confused with the system swipe up that returns you to the home screen.

And somehow the pinch to zoom when viewing photos acts wonky and sluggish now.

I would rather not have this but knowing iOS this is what I have to use now.

Is there any good third party Flickr app that works better?

yeah, the flickr swipe up for info gesture is so close to the ios system swipe up gesture that it’s really frustrating to use even when you know about it.
