Spectrum app update kills the mini menu, can we go back a version?

The Roku Spectrum TV app has a lot of problems but the one thing I loved was while watching a program if you pressed the LEFT purple arrow button you would get a mini guide on the left side displaying about 10 channels on the screen that you could scroll through very quickly by holding the down arrow once and it moved seamlessly through the channels at a pace you could read each program title.

They did an update which now says click the right button for the mini guide and the mini guide on the right only shows 5 channels in the view.  And if you hold the down arrow, it scrolls so fast and doesn't show the program titles OR you click the down arrow, then again, then again, then again, then again which is so ANNOYING when you have hundreds of channels.

Is there any way to go back to the previous version of this Spectrum app???

There isn't a way to go back to a previous version of a channel/app and features in Spectrum's channel/app are under the control of Spectrum, not Roku.

Why would they do this. So dumb click left and says to click right. Why not allow both and not waste programming to tell people to click other button.

So has anyone found a solution yet? I can’t watch any of the local stations because of this glitch. Very frustrating. Only tv it works on is the one with the cable box.
