First of all,
I can NOT view or use the site on
my phone AT ALL. When I go to newsfeed, the words are overlapped by what looks
like light blue snowflakes making it it hard to read.
Then when I expand on a comment by
hitting 'read more', the text from that comment overlaps the text that was
previously on the screen making it IMPOSSIBLE to read.
I just found out our beloved joke
thread now only contains the newer posts. All the wonderful jokes that were
there since the beginning were no longer there. And Buzzybee will no longer
posts jokes because of the new format.
And the color of the font being so
light, it's so hard to read. This is one thing that a lot of people had
complained and brought it to AgingCare's attention. But it doesn't seem to
matter to them. We don't matter to them.
I am so disappointed in AgingCare.
And I am so done with it too.
Sorry you are disappointed. Please let us know what type of device is showing overlapping text. We have been testing and responding to feedback for many months and thought that tech had fully resolved that issue.
I have provided a link to the joke thread, 275 posts are available for view.

Let me know if that is not the thread you are referring to.
In response to previous feedback, we changed the fonts to black, please let us know where the font is reading too light.
If you would prefer to send me an email feel free to contact me at kim.barnett@agingcare.com Thanks!
Whenever I have a break at work or it is a slow day, I would dive into Aging Care to see what are the current questions and discussions. I could whip through quite a few pages. Now, I am lucky if I can answer one question/discussion before I need to get back to work. Probably the same is happening with those wonderful caregivers who are hands-on and have a few minutes to spare.
Yes, the font is light, so I need to enlarge the page, but by doing that, it takes more scrolling.... [sigh]. Wish we could change to the font to what we find easier to use, as sometimes darkening a font makes the letters run together. Oh why does life have to get so complicated !!
My main issue - using my iPhone 7 - is that the questions and discussions “float”. Meaning - as I try to scroll from left to right the page “floats” up so as I’m looking at the selection of New Questions - or New Discussion- whatever - it’s a constant chasing from left to right and then up and down. As I’m chasing the page around if I lightly touch a topic, it comes up. So then it’s back arrow and on to chasing the floating page.
I dont know if that makes sense - but if you’re dealing with it as I am - I know you know what I mean.
Its supremely frustrating.
I meant “if I lightly touch a topic, it comes up” in not a good way. What I meant was that as I’m chasing the page around my finger will brush over a random spot - and whatever happened to be there comes up.
Which segways to - there doesn’t seem to be a good spot to place your finger as you try to scroll from to left to right - seems your always touching something you don’t mean to and voila’ - something pops up. Just because ya gotta put your finger somewhere - right?
Or maybe it’s just me.
I have just started to do that as well - click on the category header.
Thing is - I didn’t know you could do that until yesterday when I read it on one of the many threads concerning people’s dislike of this new format.
Maybe if the headers were underlined it would have been easier for me to figure that out on my own. Anyhoo -
What annoys me now is that as part of the test group I submitted my having this issue months and months ago - along with a few other issues - and no one replied to me. Would have been nice to have had that little tip a little earlier.
But thank you for your effort. I think it speaks volumes as to what makes this site so great - the smart caring members who are here to help each other out and do a better job of it rather than professionals in positions of authority.
