Annoying as heck

This App already wasn’t the best and sync as a whole program has been so difficult to use but I’m using this platform to express just how incredibly INCREDIBLY annoying it is now with the multi factor ID. I need to look something up really quick on my laptop while I’m in the middle of a busy day? Not possible! Because not only does the site log you out every 2 minutes but now every time I log in I have to have my phone on me to also put a code in with yet another APP. This is not convenient or helpful and I beg to know if any users of this program are happy about this because I certainly am not.

Keeps getting worse

Every few months this app gets worse and barely works. They recently added MFA, so now there’s even more stuff you need to download just to use it. Not worth it. There are better alternatives out there.

Doesn’t Work With TMobile

SyncOnSet isn’t working with T-Mobile. This creates a lot of problems and setting back the work flow. What a mess. The over simplified app doesn’t allow for full usage that the website has so if you’re on location with bad signal - you're kind of screwed.

Effective! But still needs improvement

I’ve been using SyncOnSet for years in both app and desktop versions. It’s the industry leader but there are still several things I wish it could perform better on. For instance; on the app you can easily add tags for previously uploaded photos, nearly impossible on the desktop. I also wish there was a better, simpler way to view fitting info on my mobile device or label on actual photos for the establishing continuity photos. To be sure, I still love the product over any other on the market but it’s pretty buggy and glitchy which is frustrating when on set.

As it was

Can you guys just make sync the way it used to be? Years later I’m still having issues.

Crashed day 1

New EP version wouldn’t even begin to work. Crashed all day. It’s crap.

Terrible!

Seems to be the only program being widely used but there are better ones out there. Sync is awkward and difficult to use. Not intuitive at all and not a quick to find anything. I would not use ever if I had a choice. Real review; NO STARS!!

Horrible

This is my first time using this app and it’s horrible. Nothing works smoothly and I can’t find any good tutorials.

Who asked for this?!

New app is such a disappointment. Why “fix” something that isn’t broken? This one is so difficult to navigate, lost all the perks of the interface of the original app, & just takes extra time - when time is something we don’t have to waste in this industry! We hate hate HATE. Please bring the old app back. This makes you work harder, not smarter :(

Update: now the app moves even SLOWER. Rarely responds when you try to touch within the app to navigate between pages (oh so many pages to get to where you want to be - so counterintuitive), lags constantly, & can several minutes to even view photos already loaded in the app. This is whether on or off wifi. I never thought I would miss a continuity book so much.

EP took a great app and wrecked it

I loved the ease of use and ability to work with my team and departments to keep our continuity and character sheets accessible and organized. After EP bought the app it became completely useless. I’m very disappointed with the changes.
