im pretty sure I'm not going mad, but did anyone notice that the app was updated a few weeks ago, but then reverted back to its usual (crappy) self?

When I opened it, the top bar was dark blue and the menu layout was totally different (all accessed via a top left menu, as opposed to separate icons along the bottom). Visually it looked more akin to the website, but I'm sure I was in the app.

There's no mention of any major updates in the app changelog, nor can I find any other mentions of it.

As of now, the app looks how it used to.... complete with limited functionality and overall crappiness

Did anyone else see this? Am I actually going mad? :D

Turns out I'm indeed not mad, but apparently, despite being the same version, the UI is totally different on the 12.9" iPad compared to the 9.7" iPad. Not sure if ive seen any other apps totally changing their UI based on the device you're using (apart from iPhone vs iPad versions obviously)

For anyone that cares, this is the 12.9" version:

and this is the (far inferior!) 9.7" version:
