Our Xamarin app is a bit sluggish and uses a lot more resources on your device than you might expect.

Especially on my slower phone, the Bitwarden UI feels like it would shortly freeze. And some actions take longer than expected.

The new native apps with a new UI look great and should be better to use.

Question. I am a computer dumb. Is this scary for me? Lol.

the apps will look a bit different but will be faster.

No, this is mainly cosmetic changes and changes not visible to the user. It's a result of a small team growing and thus having more time for making their apps better to use.

No, you should ignore these types of posts though.
