I actually thought it had a lot of potential and made some sense once you got into it, and I was looking forward to working in the Tapestry "paradigm" (sorry!) for a change. I even thought that the (empty) Discovery bar was not unattractive, and took up less space than it seemed it would from photos of busy Arcs.

But then, I uninstalled the Facebook app, and everything fell to pieces.

Tapestries crashed so fast and so repeatedly that it took me several tries to get my finger on the "Google Play" icon in the upper-right corner before the next crash. Once I FINALLY accomplished that tap, I downloaded one of the launchers recommended in a thread here.

Would've liked to play around some more, but it's obviously not, um, robust yet.
