New UpdateNew update has made the app unusable. The channels are no longer easily accessible.

Update sucksThis new update isn’t good. I’ve never left a bad review for Buffer. EVER. But this is horrible.

No Custom thumbnail supportI wasted a lot of time using the web or the app version just to figure out how to do thumbnail from my own camera roll. I would urge the Developer) instead of focusing on complex things, sort out these basic feature.
