Keyboard Support
I’ve been on the edge of switching out of Roam due to lack of mobile/offline tools. Then this got released! Unfortunately, it’s lack of keyboard support makes it really frustrating. Trying to hang on for a bit longer, but in the middle of several projects and iPad is my main tool. Hope to see an update soon!

Response from developer
Hey, we've fixed this issue in recent updates, if you give it another try it should work now!
Unusable on iPad
Really disappointed in this app. CRITICAL keys, like the delete button (seriously) and the tab button do not work with an iPad & external keyboard, rendering it completely useless. If the intention was to make an app just for iPhones, it seems ok, otherwise it’s a no go.
IPad App Doesnt work
I have a magic keyboard and app still doesn’t work (cursor issues), won’t load (even once closed and refreshed)
Many keys on keyboards (e.g. delete) don’t work
The app somehow makes it impossible to use many keys on external keyboards (including the Magic Keyboard for iPad)
Broken
App won’t load
Feels just like the web app
Which is to say: kind of slow and awkward to use on mobile. I really hoped for something much more thoughtful / fit-for-purpose after such a long wait. I remain optimistic that this will come in future.
Happy to get an app
Some feedback
- fix keyboard support
- fix offline mode
- fix loading large graphs ( not an issue on web)
- fix iOS share
- fix autocomplete on quick capture
- add graph linking and better multiplayer to product roadmap

laughable
I am a true believer and I am embarrassed for being a true believer. Roam should be embarrassed by this application, if you can call it one.
Shame On You for Failing the True Believers
I invested in your app using the true believer package. Almost a whole year later, and you ship an app that literally underperforms the mobile version.
The shortcuts aren’t working. The delete functionality isn’t working. The experience, compared to Obsidian, which is free, is garbage.
Moreover, some features such as linking between graphs, a usable interface to share images and files directly to the app from the action sheet, or a useful quick capture mode are not even on the roadmap.
While you have a truly powerful idea, your apps and packaging are nothing more than absolute garbage. I wish I could get my US $500 dollars back.

Love roam, cannot use the app
I love using roam in the browser and I’ve been waiting for a mobile native version. However, I cannot even login using google auth.
