Not really. I use it; works OK. The "new" app is just a new skin as far as I can tell.

Not true, it's riddled with bugs. Here's just the ones I've noticed today:

- Install and start it on Windows 10 and the initial Atlassian login screen doesn't work (it pops a browser window over the top that doesn't go anywhere). It eventually works after 3 or 4 tries.

- Upgrade from an older version on a machine where some of the repos in the left hand pane have been removed and it crashes instantly on first run with null reference exceptions.

- Space as a shortcut to add a file to staging is gone.

- Right click on the menu heading "Branches" in the middle panel and it will let you try to check out a branch named "Branches"

- If you had the setting on to show full console output (I like to see the output of the post-receive hook) it now shows the dialog for every file you add to staging.

For me, it also hangs each time I have to resolve a conflict (I use an external tool for resolution, don't know if it's the reason)
For me, on OS X, it takes about 2 seconds to actually appear when I click on the dock icon. And I mean simply appear, it's already open and running.
