Absolutely Fantastic
OK, the presentation's poor. OK, there's spelling mistakes. OK, it doesn't have flashy features. Why is this app 5 stars? It works. It just plain works. It's easy to use, brilliantly thought out, stunningly fast, fantastically epic. It's much, much better than Quickoffice. This is an essential application for anyone that has ever opened a word document. To the Author: Spelling issue: On a word document, it's "Save, Save Ax, Discard", it should be "Save, Save As, Discard".Show lessDottsie
Great indispensable piece of software
I love documents. It has a nice simple interface and can handle whatever your word processing needs are. The google docs sync just makes it even better. What should be added to make it perfect: a feature to automatically sync certain files to google when they are edited would be great, also when files are saved without specifying a file name they are automatically named 'unnamed' but maybe they should be named the first couple of words in that document by default. Great software but not perfectShow lessBricks973
Terrible
Terrible application, doesn't work. It didn't deal with Google Docs properly (one of the reasons I bought it). I mailed the support team, no response after five days. Avoid.PaddyStu
Not worth the price
Should be much cheaper. Here's my pros and cons if your looking to purchase.
Pro's
- ease of access to google docs - love it!
-easy conrctivity vai wi-fi.
-from a viewing perspective, it's very good if you just want to view your documents
-email feature works fine :)
Cons
-you can only edit text docs, not microsoft word docs! Meaning you can only edit files that are from google docs!
-when editing, you can only do a simple edit of words, no features such as quick office where u can copy paste, highlight etc
-the spreadsheet is difficult to use and can become unstable
- this app always tells me to restart my iPhone because of not enough memory, I always restart my phone but the same problem as always.
-can sometimes be painfully slow!
-it has crashed 3 times in the last 5 days. Not good!
-no auto save feature that I'm aware of - could be in the update.
Final note, not a bad attempt, great app if ur only doing small small editing and are on the run, otherwise, forget it.Show lessYaqubKhoshaba
Thinking only of themselves...
Update (8/4/09): Another update has been released and the SUM function still can not add, subtract or multiply. I have kept this on my phone in hopes that someday it will be a fully functional spreadsheet application... I think it's time to stop holding my breath.
Original: Documents, which currently costs five dollars had several short comings. This developer, rather than rewarding those who purchased Documents by redeveloping said app, decided to release a new app that aside from the interface is virtually the same. I would recommend getting this app while it is free, but I wouldn't recommend spending another five dollars. My biggest problem with both Documents apps was the SUM feature which can not add, subtract or multiply. Neither of these apps lives up to a claim of a fully functional spreadsheet app. Merge this with Documents and provide those who paid for the original with this as a free update and I will consider more stars.Show lessAbsolut Release
needs offline documentation and a stabler spreadsheet- not bad for the money but don't expect much!
i have had this app for a day. the first time i used the 'new' spreadsheet it crashed. I don't think the crash is so important because i wont do heavy duty crunching on the ipod and i am glad i can read xls docs with it. What does confuse me is that while i can open pictures that i have stored on the ipod, i can't do anything with them it seems. the google docs interface works but is far from mac-like/intuitive. for a app that does so little, the learning curve is a bit steep. there exists a web page explaining much-- it would help if this webpage actually used a css for mobile apps. it's not easy to read the way it is. I would like some basic built-in manual as well. i am pleased development continues on this app.Show lesslexi con
easiest file sharing for iphone/ipod touch!
There are many file sharing apps out there. I like this one the best because you can easily upload files without any additional desktop software, just use your existing web browser! I wasted $5 on Air Sharing. Buy this if you don't need to connect to servers and are just looking for an easy way to use your iphone to carry files.Show lessblukas
Needs work
Nice set of features, but... PDF viewing sluggish and prone to pauses... V annoying to use. Needs option to password protect iPhone when sharing it via WiFi. Browsing of iPhone via web browser is cute if basic and using Bonjour makes it easy. Access via WebDAV would be nice so you don't have to work one doc at a time. Lacks ability to browse web and download files via URL like AirShare, but Google Docs feature works well, as does the doc editing.Show lessNadley
Works as expected
Still a little buggy , but useable. Good synching with Google and the wifi coonection feature - I only use wifi feature in my own private network where I have restrictions to protect all devices from the outside - but I would still like a feature to encrypt or protect files. Everything is adequately described on the on- line help web page, but there is no offline internal help. Sometimes complains about memory space, which seems odd in my 16GB 3 GS with nearly half of the space available, but that was when I went to picture. Will not need that or voice recorder, just really here for the spreadsheet which does all I need until docs to go can offer full excel compatibility.Show lessGlee12728
needs work!
this app is the right idea but needs updates. Lot of crashes, text too small since 3.0 update! Keep working on it I will continue to try it!smitty256
