The frontend of the Duolicious dating app

There's screenshots of the app at https://github.com/duolicious.
There's three ways you can contribute:
To avoid supporting out-of-date clients, the client should query the backend to see what API version it provides. If the client and server are more than n version out of date (for some very small value of n), the client should show a message which asks the user to upgrade the app.
It's failed to mark about a fifth of the people I messaged as having been messaged
Chat keeps going offline. The only way to make it re-connect is by refreshing. It should re-connect automatically.
Currently, if a user tries to talk to someone with an inactive account, there'll be no indication that the person they're talking to has deactivated their account.
The height appears updated on the profile tab. But when press the 'Height' button, the units appear unchanged.
You've got "Show My Age" then you've got "Delete Your Account"
Currently, if the user presses the back button in a web browser, they'll leave the app. Instead, it should call navigate.goBack(), or operate as the back button on a mobile device would.
If you open Chrome's inspector, you can see that the app is downloading the message history. It's just not showing it.
The login page currently says something like, "Welcome to Duolicious". It should be more like, "Duolicious - Meet people who get you". See how, in only a few extra words, the second one has a call to action which lets new users know what Duolicious does?
We need to send something to the xmpp server to request a good old fashioned blocking.
Right now it shows "(error)" because the empty string isn't allowed to be submitted, despite the UI letting you type it. People can also type a single space, and it'll accept that. Leading and tailing whitespace should be trimmed instead before validation.
The logic to undo Q&A answers will need to be changed to rewind the "best match" stack only if a new best match was revealed by the previous answer.
Hello, it's no secret that women don't use dating services in the same numbers as men.
And when they do, they flock to the big well-known names that appear when you type "what is a good dating app?" into your phone. Not the small new one on the block.
Consequently you need to brand your dating service in a very different way than existing services. "We have the best algorithm" won't cut it, technical arguments bounce off of women. You need an idea that sounds immediately attractive to someone hearing about it from their friend for the first time.
Some possible alternative brands that could be attractive to women:
Anyway these are just some quick ideas, you can think of more. Concept design and marketability will do more for your service than trying to create a more technically impressive algorithm.
Good luck & godspeed

Fields on the welcome screen look a bit ugly
There's probably some concurrency bug in the DefaultFlatList which causes stale answers to be shown. The user reported that three of their own answers were incorrectly displayed as "yes" but should have been "no".
Here's some libraries which could help:
Blocking/reporting will be used as a signal to train a model to match users, so the signal needs to be clear.
Consider letting anonymous users answer some questions and view anonymized profiles before they sign up.
This is quite common feedback. Many users want to be able to sign in with a username and password.
the login process isn’t too bad but I can see how some might see it as a little tedious
it’s just the fact that I have to go into my emails instead of just typing in the same password every time. Not sure if there is like verification benefit to your method? Doesn’t bother me too much but it does take longer.
Where you type your reply to someone starts feeling frustratingly cramped when you type a long message
The frontend needs the capability of letting users know when the backend undergoing planned maintenance.
If you're answering some profile questions and hit "skip", that should blank it out.
They should be checked.
They keep showing blank sections and not loading. I should have never left scrollviews </3
The app doesn't look like Hinge, or any other dating app, really. But it'd still be nice to have a more distinctive theme in general.
The XMPP server sends these anyway, so why not show them?
If you're in the search filters, and you hit "reset" then "continue", it doesn't set your desired height. If you drag it, it does. But if you press "reset", it doesn't.
Show the countdown timer while waiting.
If I'm having a conversation with someone, I want to see why we're an x% match
It should show a spinner instead.
Now that duolicious/duolicious-backend#118 has been merged, Duolicious is a bit less eager to notify users. Having the indicator flash when a new message is received could help.
The traits currently refresh, but not the search results.
It's annoying on web because you can't open profiles in new tabs. If you want to browse through 10 profiles, you need to open the first one, back out of it, open the second, back out, etc.
It's annoying on mobile for a similar reason. Apps like Tinder and Bumble solved the navigation issue with the swiping mechanism. Duolicious can solve it by infinite scrolling. When you click on on a profile, you'll see it. When you continue scrolling down past the bottom of that profile, you'll see another one, etc.
Ensure that none of the buttons are pressable until the profile loads
The text size also changes after you set your preference. The text size should be static instead. It might be working fine for the "in depth" cards. If so, that logic can be copied.
