This is spot on. I was originally using PayTM to pay my bills for phones and TV. And while it was a little bloated and sluggish there was nothing better. But then Google Pay was released, and it was so much faster then anything else on the market.

But Google Pay released a new update using the flutter framework. And now even scrolling takes ages to complete. I complained on Play Store but the reply said to check my internet speed.

Meanwhile PayTM has also redesigned their app, but unlike Google Pay their updates actually made the app much faster and intuitive. I still check Google Pay from time to time to see if they have fixed their app, but the scrolling is still laggy (it feels like you are in a web page) and the loading page still flickers.



>(it feels like you are in a web page)

Few apps are native anymore, they're all just wrappers around web pages. It sucks.
