   Redundant. Why? Confusing. Hard to track where items are saved. In a world of Notes app and other apps, I don’t understand where this fits

2. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Crashes on Google Sign In. iOS on iPhone 16 Max Can’t get past the Google Auth

3. ★★★★★slow performance and long loading times

   Are daily updates necessary?. Bug fixes and performance improvements. Bug fixes and performance improvements. Bug fixes and performance improvements. Bug fixes and performance improvements. Bug fixes and performance improvements. You guys are ridiculous and out of control. Please you don’t need to update your app this frequently. It’s obnoxious.

   It doesn’t let you add any comments in your task. There is a bug when you try to add a comment at first of all does not let you add the comment in the when I click that blue arrow button the whole app just jams and then might go back and try to open anything it doesn’t open at all I can’t even select the area that I wanna put the comment on please fix

   Awful. Genuinely the worst app. I can’t even click on a free template to use it. FREE. Genuinely doesn’t do anything not to mention actually impossible to use. I’ve been trying to work with it for years and everything I use it I remember why I stopped the last time. Actual junk.

6. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

   Voice to text on IOS still not working. Voice to text syncs incorrectly. It’s been months. MONTHS. A few words randomly disappear and it makes Notion unusable for me. Please for the love of God, stop adding more AI features NOBODY asked for and fix the app so we can actually use it.

7. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   BUG over BUGS. Full of bugs on every major use case. This is a clear sign they are not using their own mobile app on daily basis, if they would, they'd see the same problems we all are affected by. 4.8 Rating is not justified at all. The app is not usable.

8. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   I love Notion! I HATE this app!!. I have attempted to use what I create on my phone and it is impossible. They completely reorganize to make it fit a phone screen. It sucks soo badly!!!

9. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

   Buggy. Hardly works on iOS. Not really worth having. Fun piece today: tried to use the “create a new page in” feature today when link a page and it just keeps breaking.

10. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Bugs. There are bugs in “Open as a sub page” or “open as a new page” and many more

11. ★★★★★accessibility and assistive-technology issues

    The people at Notion should use this app sometime.. I can’t zoom, I can’t print, I can’t get the AI out of my face, I can’t get the system font size to affect the app, the touch targets for checkboxes are misaligned, and most of the app extends beyond the safe zone when in in landscape. For a company with such great design, why is care thrown to the wind when this app is developed? Get it together.

12. ★★★★★data, history or progress disappears

    Deleted all my important notes. I’ve been using this app for years. I’ve logged hundreds of volunteer hours and one day the entire workspace disappeared. I contacted support and they said they somehow can’t find it? If your logging information you may need for future use, DONT DOWNLOAD

13. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    AI features are garbage. AI features are garbage. The search being AI first and actual page search in a smaller icon that requires two clicks is the worst UI design i’ve seen in any app ever. Horrific user experience due to yet another company shoving needless AI mechanics down users throats.

14. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Won’t load. It won’t even load on my iPhone 17 pro. I tried force closing it, restarting my phone, and offloading it and reinstalling it. Nothing. Works great on my laptop though. Just trying to streamline everything.

15. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    You idiots removed search on iPhone. You idiots removed search on iPhone

16. ★★★★★data, history or progress disappears

    Forced AI features. Forcing users to have to email support to get the AI features removed is ridiculous. This crazy push for mandatory AI in everything is so stupid. At least allow users a choice! I deleted my pages and my account entirely.

17. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Too hard to sign in. I signed up. Created notes and when i try to sign in again, you send me a link that brings me back to the sign in page and that just keeps going on. Occasionally it seems like im signing in but the app just spins. If it takes 1/2 hr to not sign in, whats the point. Its a giant time suck. Please use your artificial intelligence to solve this problem quickly otherwise its obvious the intelligence part of your ai is in fact artificial-it aint real

18. ★★★★★data, history or progress disappears

    Most important is card face with a photo and this feature has glitches…per Notion AI. Finally understand database, properties, and cards in Notion nomenclature (no small feat). I want a photo to save to card faces (gallery view) in my database. I worked with Notion AI for over an hour. Its AI would fix the issue in gallery view. I’d go into table view to edit and go back to gallery and photo was gone. I tried a bunch of different things and the card face would never save the photo.

19. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    ai ruined notion. used to love notion! it was my favorite place to write and plan, but the focus on ai completely ruined the layout that made this app so awesome. i don’t mind the idea of ai being a feature, but the way it’s overrun everything is atrocious. i don’t want my homepage to be a chatbot. i want my homepage to be the layout that i spent so long curating.

20. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    30 day money back guarantee is fake. They only refund your money if you have a technical issue, it is not a true money back guarantee. I figured I’d give it a shot since it had the guarantee but it’s not user friendly so I was looking to get my money back and they said no. There is no trial option on their templates. Very disappointing.

21. ★★★★★data, history or progress disappears

    Doesn’t Work. Won’t load anything. Just sits there not loading anything, unable to click on anything. Deleted and reinstalled, turned phone on/off, doesn’t work. Terrible.

22. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Buggy in latest update to the point of being unusable. I can see that other reviews have reported similarly. Whatever happened in the most recent update maybe has caused this I guess.

23. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Lagging bad. This is lagging so bad

24. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Amazing! Except for all the freaking bugs!. I’ve used Notion for around 3-4 years. I have TONS of material lovingly crafted and ordered thanks to this app. Yet the app has become more and more buggy, slow, and hard to engage with. I’m angry because of what it should be and isn’t!!! All because of issues that other apps on my phone are not sharing, ie, they must be native. Please please fix things guys! You’re an amazing platform that is being dragged through the cesspool of performance issues!

25. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Won’t load anything. Doesn’t work at all

26. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Bad. This app is so hard to use. It wont let me use my apple pencil and i cant update it to work

27. ★★★★★data, history or progress disappears

    Deleted. I tried to just create a simple set of notes with 4 tabs just to keep it simple and learn on, once I went to the page I wanted to copy from my notes template disappeared, I tried to google what happened and even tried to search for the title I created, but is was gone.. If the app can’t hold 1 simple note, it’s going to be more of a hassle to use it than I want to deal with.. I’ll just move back to my iPhone notes, at least I know where things are.

28. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Waste. Complete waste of memory. Janky UI, icons that don’t work when you click them, and overall a frustrating, and annoying waste of time and energy. I wish I could rate it no stars. Do better.

29. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Дайте Русский язык!!!. Если вы хотите заработать много денег - дабавьте Русский язык и сделайте покупку разовую на все время. Дайте Русским хороший сервис и будет вам счастье

30. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    It charges you without permission.. It automatically switches you to a plan that pays and charges you without permission for years. Truly toxic and can’t get a support for refund. Really toxic app.
