Great update!

Only bug I've noticed so far is when tapping to reveal pictures... They never load properly, and the loading text is in Russian.

So, for those who've tried it, what are the benefits of using the app over using the device's web browser?

[behind_a_soul]

Hmmm I think it is faster and easier ;)

My android's browser has bad graphics, allows websites to download data to the limited space on my phone, and other things that make it a pain to use.

I also find apps to be a better experience in general because they've actually been designed from the ground up to support the hardware and operating system instead of just slapping a new stylesheet on. This usually makes them faster and easier to use. So long as the features you want from the site are a part of the app, of course.

I haven't tried out this app too extensively yet, but it has more features than the non-official ElJay app I've been using.

try chrome as a new browser on your android. Available from google play. awesome.
