Tech issue, can't scroll comments on the iPad.

Confirmed. Came to log the same report.

I was happy to see the onscreen arrows since many experimental UIs seem to be relying on the keyboard exclusively. I figured those keys meant some thought went into iOS support.

Regardless, I'm still having fun just clicking thru the pics. Thanks.

You should preload the next image, so when I hit [right] key, it just shows up without delay.

right/left was pretty snappy for me, but I found myself wishing it would preload the reddit page each time. I found myself hitting [up] for every single image (because I needed the explanation that often..)

That would unnecessarily eat up a ton of bandwidth, I think people using this will usually go through most photos without pulling up the thread.

Very nicely made. My only criticism is the purple progress bar- what's the point of it? I thought I was going to run out of images when it filled up, but it just kept going. Is that filling an indication that it's going to yesterday's posts? It feels unneeded, it's distracting.
