Missing Features for Pro Users

This app is artificially hobbled for mobile. If you’re using this on an iPad with a keyboard and mouse you cannot use the mouse to interact with reports. You must touch the screen. Additionally you can not create or edit reports in this app and are required to do so through a desktop computer. The iPad Safari is no less cable than desktop safari so this is an artificial limit that serves no valid purpose.

Stopped working

Just updated the app 2 days ago thinking it may fix some issues I was experiencing. Now app does not work at all. Does not even launch. 😕

Too slow to be considered as a view on the go tool

Too slow to refresh and download info. Even in wifi. I was considering this app in my phone obviously to have a quick view on the go. But doesn’t worth it

Expectations not met

It is expected that technology will go down or have errors. Unfortunately, Tableau has an unprecedented frequency of down days or refreshing data being incomplete. I hope this will be corrected in the future.

Too many issues

This platform is horrible

Default to desktop view

It would be great if reports can be defaulted to desktop view!

Panning and accidentally swiping back to main screen

Hopefully the app gets ongoing work to it. It is an iOS HIG feature but I’m not sure if it’s mandatory: swiping to the right from The left edge of the screen causing you to effectively ‘press the back button’ and going out of a dashboard and back into the Home tab. Seeing as there’s a back button angle bracket icon at the top left, maybe the swipe feature can be deactivated? Seems it’s all too easy to spend a while setting up a dashboard and browsing, then you lose all that set up when you try and pan across a table or viz, and you lose it all as it goes to the home page and home tab.

Slow to load.

App is slow to load and the Vizpick reporting is difficult to navigate on the phone

Multi server

Overall works great. Negative for me is the lack of ability to view multiple servers without signing out and signing in every time you want to switch. Add that functionality please.

Slow

It takes too long to load up
