in comment threads on Android, the UX doesn't really fit with the design of the app. The "award" action should be in the comment action overflow menu instead of in the flatlist[1] (for comparison, the previous design for comment flatlist looked like this[2])

It's even goofier in Mod Mode, where the flatlist is four icon-only mod action buttons . . . and a text-labeled "Award" button

(If nothing else, having it in the location where "Reply" has been for sceveral years is probably going to really screw up your A/B testing metrics lmao)

Thanks. Re-installed app and it came up right away. First impressions. It's very easy to use. PayPal was way easier to pay/buy. I put down the iPhone and switched to my Android to make the purchase.
