You've done a great job on the redesign.

Perhaps the only thing I'm unsure of is 1) the hidden tab bar at the top of the screen and 2) the somewhat ambiguous icons in the nav bar.

Thanks! The hidden nav is certainly a risk. The bumps on the bottom of the bar try to suggest it, but are very subtle. A major overhaul like this would involve some marketing efforts, and/or a NUX tutorial upon first launch. They'd lose that chunk of existing users who hate change, no matter what progress is made. I can picture the streams of tweet rage already...

Recommendations on clearer nav icons? Always seeking constructive feedback from people wiser than I.
