A bad start

The app has frozen up until I post so I may have to close the app and reopen it but I will wait a minute or two until then I will hang around then I was check if the post is in the board or not. It has not appeared from the past attempts. At this point my phone get hot or over heated as a have the app open. Hopefully this is a me problem. I will attempt to post now and see if the post is on the board but if it is not I am not sure as to why this is possible. Send help.
