Edit: Issue was resolved by an update. Was able to successfully sign in. Updating review. Says I need to set a new password. I've already done this on my PC, but I decided to humor the app and do it again. The only two fields are "new pw" and "confirm new pw" and when I put it in it says "old pw incorrect"... That's not one of the fields, app. You're drunk.

I've enjoyed Kickstarter for a long time, but the app is only so-so. Push notifications have never worked, uninstall-reinstall included. It's never felt straightforward to see the status of the projects I've backed or keep track of them. Search also doesn't seem to turn up what I'm looking for at the top of the list, even if I search for the exact name. Given the importance of exposure on the platform, I'm guessing they select result order as a combination of search match and desired hype.

Excellent platform. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars from me is that the navigation is sometimes unintuitive. Pressing back should, in my mind, go to where you just were or to the main feed. Instead, it seems mostly to exit the app. I understand that campaign pages use tabs, but having that be the primary mode of getting around is counter to how every other app works, so I can't (and don't want to) stop using the back button.
