Hey @leob, thanks for the reply 
Honestly, I haven't had any issues with Ionic View itself. I've found the app to work as expected and haven't noticed and issues with performance—at least while testing some pretty lightweight apps. Mine in particularly uses Firebase as a data store, so I don't have node or anything else running on the backend. Not sure if that would affect performance or not.
Anyway, I'm pretty sure that installing an APK isn't going to solve my issue. I think this issue is related to the code and I just need some guidance debugging.
Thanks again!
