How do developers on slow and metered connection deal with this?
- on opening it's very slow to render the first screen
- on clicking, the "updates" tab is extremely slow to display anything.
- clicking to initiate an update often doesn't do anything, and multiple subsequent clicks are required
- once an update is initiated and downloading, the state is often inaccurate on the updates screen
- often after clicking "update all", only some of the updates actually begin. This happens on the IOS app store too.
