Pretty buggy and lacking a lot of features

I’m glad there’s an interface to Lists, but there are SO SO many bugs with Microsoft Lists. Trying to open the List in a browser ends up kicking me back to the Lists app. It restricts the number of lines in multi-line text fields. It does not work at all in Offline mode, making it impossible to use in situations like conferences or in an airplane. It’s not integrated at all with Teams, so you can’t see Conversations. Pressing the “New” button shows the templates but the pop-up dialog box is oddly 1/5th the size of the screen. It’s unusable in so, so many ways.

It’s alright, but the Web version is better

It’s alright. However, it is missing a lot of the functionality from the Web version and it has a few bugs.

I don’t think Microsoft is taking this app seriously looking at the update history and seeing that most are just bug and security fixes. It’s disappointing that there are very few feature releases and that it is less capable than the web app.

So close

This app has great possibilities but it seams like midway through creating the app the developers gave up. For starters why would comments be excluded? This app is useless without comments.

No commenting?

It’s great but as a team we use the commenting features often and this app doesn’t allow you to view or add comments on your list items.

Where is the calendar view

Why can’t functionality that is delivered in the browser made available in the app. The calendar view is still not available.

Cannot add attachment

We cannot even add attachment in SharePoint library lists. The app mentions to activate a setting, but the option itself does not even exists.

Got to continue using the SharePoint App instead until this is fixed.

Image Uploading bug

Hi

Whenever I upload an image into a list it,

The Scale doesn’t display properly and the tick option disappears.

I have updated everything and still have issue.

Thanks

Promising but…

Please make lookup of Contacts in Outlook easier than currently, including auto population feature for a contact’s other fields

Must have commercial account and subscription

It seems pretty ridiculous to me that a literal LISTS APP requires you to have a commercial account with a 365 subscription (which is a ridiculous idea in itself, you shouldn’t have to subscribe to use Microsoft office). Typical mega corporation, has to squeeze every last penny out of its consumers.

Response from developer

At this time app only support work and school accounts associated with Microsoft commercial subscriptions. We are actively working to provide free access through Microsoft personal account and please stay tuned in this regard. We appreciate your support in improving Lists experience.
