Downloaded the App 3-4 years ago, was locked out of my account in the 1st week but support team assisted speedily, had no problems since. I've not experienced any withdrawal issues. Variety of coins to buy (though not all coins in app can be purchased) It would be cool to add LBRY credits to the app. I love the ability to withdraw to Fiat. I would give the app a 5 star if we could own the private key. Overall great app would recommend it.

The improvements in the App has been great. Using this app is easy. Suggestions that could make it even better. On the Buy Sell page, it's good to have the current trading pair's Balance at the Top. But on the Orders & Order History tabs, it will be nice to have a default filter, to show only the current pair's open Orders/completed Orders, with sub-filter for failed orders. If you want to see all Orders you can remove the filters.
