It crashes all the time. Sound only works about 10% of the time that the app actually manages to keep itself running. Using any functionality outside of listening only makes the issue worse. You would think that commute mode would help with some of these issues, but sound has not worked for me a single time using commute mode. Please fix this! ### 2/5 — Needs optimizations on iPad *2026-02-17* The app needs several adjustments and optimizations on iPad for example in the main tab we can see the chat and the presentation but we can write messages. ### 2/5 — Useless *2026-01-28* Our school uses SSO and I can’t get the app to work with it. Very frustrating. I used to be able to bypass by logging in through a browser and then opening the app, but that no longer works. ### 4/5 — Good app but lacks couple of crucial features. *2025-04-22, version 4.0* Needs emoticons and hand gestures. ### 1/5 — REZALETSİNİZ *2024-09-13, version 3.7.1* Adobe bu platformu gözden çıkarmış olacak ki 2022de yazılan sorunlar aynen devam etmekte. Toplantı/ders tam ortasında paylaşılan pdf görüntüsü gidiyor veya hiç yüklenmiyor. Çözmek için neyi bekliyorsunuz kardeşim? İşinizi düzgün yapmanız için bir yerlere şikayet mi etmemiz gerekiyor ya da kötü laftan mı anlıyorsunuz? ### 1/5 — Kicks out constantly 0 stars if possible *2024-07-15* Having to use for uni lectures and it’s the worst app for kicking you out constantly then not allowing you back in with out a complete rebook of the webpage and resubmitting a join after, wish they would revert back to MS Teams ### 1/5 — Awful App *2024-07-10, version 3.6.2* Send you right to “Join Room” with no way to get out of the app. iOS Mobile App ### 1/5 — Out of all of the video calling platforms, this is by far the worst *2024-05-08* Between the choppy video and audio, terrible UI, awful privacy, and lack of consistency, I would rather go back to what Skype was in 2010 ### 2/5 — Laggy on iPad Pro *2023-12-22, version 3.5.2* Super laggy, old version was better. ### 1/5 — Choppy *2023-11-01* Very glitchy in this version. Hope the update fixes issues. Make it easier to connect or share the link for the room. Be able to exit the chat box without restarting. Slide shows don’t work nice. I haven’t tried anything else ### 1/5 — Connection errors *2023-09-19, version 3.4.1* Such a useless and bad application ### 1/5 — Bug *2023-08-30* Trop de bug durant les sessions qui oblige à ouvrir la version pc ou à redémarrer continuellement la réunion… ### 3/5 — Participant Issues *2023-08-15* As a participant, and first time user, some slides and videos by presenters were not visible. ### 1/5 — No use to hosts *2023-07-30* This latest iteration of Adobe Connect app has solved some issues but introduced others. Great to see HTML pods supported, but the way they are presented is unpredictable. Fewer 'unsupported content' notices are popping up, but that doesn't mean you can actually read the content. The customisable pods are particularly hit or miss. The initial overview screen is good, but the big issue for me as a host is that there is little control. The classic app made a useful (if limited) back up where I could control the session as a host if needed. It would never be my first choice, but a good safety net. That functionality, and hence the only benefit of the app for me as a host, has been lost in this version. If a student has sound issues on their computer, or limited bandwidth and is getting jumpy sound, I recommend the app to help there. Otherwise I tell them to avoid it, as the experience is vastly inferior to the computer experience. The web browser works better on the mobile devices than the app. I can't see the point of it now tbh. University Lecturer ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Overheating issue iphone *2026-05-27* Adobe Connect on iOS appears to have significant performance inefficiencies. During sessions (including pre-recorded playback), my iPhone 17 Pro overheats within 10–20 minutes despite camera off, Wi-Fi only, and no background apps. None of their support troubleshooting have improved the issue. The device reaches a thermal threshold where iOS disables charging for safety. This does not occur with other video conferencing or streaming apps (Zoom, Vimeo), indicating a likely issue with CPU/GPU usage, rendering pipeline, or background session management in the Adobe Connect iOS app. ### 1/5 — Bad my Wi-Fi is good doesn’t work very well *2026-01-21, version 4.2.1* I would never recommend this I would recommend zoom ### 1/5 — IT DOESNT WORK!!! *2025-12-01, version 4.2.1* Please read this adobe We all have problems with this app it doesn’t verify my session links And please please bring back the old app in usa😭😭😭🙏🏽🙏🏽 ### 1/5 — iOS 26 *2025-10-28, version 4.1.1* It’s not working on iOS 26 ### 1/5 — Bug son iPhone 14 Pro *2025-07-24* Bien dommage application inutilisable car le son au lieu de sortir en haut parleur sort comme si j’étais au téléphone. ### 1/5 — Add recording session from mobile *2025-05-16* The app suggests to go back to the browser in order to have more features, but as a host I can only use the app. I am trying to record the session while using my phone but it hasn’t been possible. Please add this feature! ### 1/5 — Güncel *2025-04-10, version 4.0* Eski yorumlara aldanmayın uygulama kendini sürekli güncel tutuyor bu yüzden hatalar ile karşılaşmıyorsunuz. ### 1/5 — Basura *2025-03-21, version 4.0* Básicamente no sirve para nada. - El audio imposible hacerlo funcionar en IPad. - Te pide que inicies sesión pero no te deja registrarte. Los correos de olvidar contraseña nunca llegan. - Da muchos problemas de imagen vs. audio - No puedes aumentar la velocidad para ver los vídeos… En definitiva, inservible, directamente nunca la he podido llegar a usar ### 1/5 — Funktioniert schlecht bis nicht über Mobilfunk *2024-12-10* Grauenvoll trotz LTE und 5G, nicht einmal ein ununterbrochener Audiostream ist möglich. ### 1/5 — Not working *2024-09-30, version 3.7.1* Doesn’t even join the rooms anymore! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Saved me! *2025-05-30* Came home late for class and attended on my IPhone on the app! ### 5/5 — Easy *2025-04-26* Good way to learn ### 5/5 — Awesome tool *2025-01-09, version 3.8.1* This tool is pretty clean simple to use and feature rich , loved it. ### 5/5 — Personal usage *2024-12-15* Just alright 👍🏻 ### 5/5 — Best *2024-10-09, version 3.7.1* The best app in that never gets in 😅 ### 5/5 — The Unmatched Brilliance of Adobe: A Photographer’s Dream Come True *2023-08-02, version 3.4* In the ever-evolving world of professional photography, one name stands tall, unrivaled in its brilliance - Adobe.
