## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Bedienung unpraktisch und sehr abgespeckt.

*2022-10-21*

Die App ist verbesserungswürdig. Das Kommentar eines Nutzers vor 3 Jahren ist im Jahr 2022 immer noch aktuell. Es gibt kostenlose office apps die wesentlich besser bedient werden können. Formatieren und bearbeiten der Word, Excel Dateien ist entweder unmöglich oder stellt eine Qual dar. 
Die App ist nicht intuitiv und nicht alle Shortcuts funktionieren. 

Ausdrückliche Bitte an die Entwickler: Versucht ernsthaft selbst damit irgendwelche Aufgabe zu erledigen und die App nach diesen Bedürfnissen zu entwickeln.

Vielen Dank!

### 1/5 — Why you not just give up, BlackBerry???

*2022-02-18*

Why you not just give up, BlackBerry???

### 1/5 — Kostet extra?

*2020-03-24*

Kostet extra?

### 1/5 — Useless

*2019-11-12, version 2.2.0*

This is the most useless attempt at creating an Office document editing or creation tool.  The Excel program is absolutely abysmal, imagine not being able to click and drag a formula.  Or imagine not being able to use the arrow keys on the apple Smart Keyboard to navigate cells - I can‘t imagine why any release manager would say „Yep, I‘m happy to push this app to production“

### 1/5 — Apple Pencil Support would make this a 5 star

*2019-03-20*

App is fine to view documents but having the ability to annotate documents with the Apple Pencil would make this a great app.

### 1/5 — Edit is Good, But Lacks Apple Pencil Support

*2019-02-17*

The change from Docs-to-Go to the new “Edit” app was a big improvement. It’s much nicer now BUT the lack of Apple Pencil 2 support for iPad Pro (3rd Gen) is a huge miss. 

Add this feature please!

### 1/5 — Bedienung und Design unterirdisch

*2019-01-24*

Also ich habe noch nie so eine schlechte App wie diese gesehen. Das Update ist grauenvoll. Unübersichtlich und vom Design her unterirdisch. Hiermit kann man nicht arbeiten. Kann nur von der BlackBerry Lösung abraten!

### 1/5 — iOS 11.4 Broken App

*2018-06-04, version 1.3.2*

App is useless on iOS 11.4. When will this be updated?

### 1/5 — Perhaps I'm missing the point

*2017-05-31, version 1.2.0*

Imagine the most featureless, basic, worthless app for the creation and editing of office documents.  

This is not as good as that.

### 2/5 — PDFs in landscape view unreadable in new version.

*2020-08-20*

In the latest version of the app, PDFs with pages in both portrait and landscape view get re-PDF’d into entirely portrait view - cutting off or shrinking all of the pages in landscape view. Please fix this issue as it makes PDFs nearly unreadable!

More generally, the new redact functionality is useful although only having the option to completely remove redacted text (instead replacing with solid black or characters like ‘XX’) somewhat limits the benefit. Additional edit functions such as highlighting, underlying, comment boxes and signatures would be much more valuable.

## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Fantastic improvement !

*2019-01-31, version 2.0.2*

Much better interface to navigate and a very productive office document and attachment editing tool.

### 3/5 — Good but lacking

*2019-05-30*

It’s a good app, but there’s no way to apply a password to a document. You can view a document that has one but cannot add a password.

### 3/5 — Nice but needs signature capability.

*2017-09-09*

Please add drawing capability so you can add your signature to documents.

### 2/5 — Crashes, loses work

*2019-05-09, version 2.0.3*

Thought this was handy for simple doc edits. But then it crashed and I lost work. The one thing a work app must not do is lose work. I can’t trust it any more, so I’ve deleted it. I would suggest you either save your work every minute, or find something more trustworthy.

### 2/5 — Enhancements needed

*2018-09-24*

It opens most documents well but you can’t view track changes. That makes it not an option for us.

### 2/5 — Does not inspire confidence

*2018-09-04, version 1.3.3*

Like all new generation Blackberry software and hardware, it is slow, cumbersome and has plenty of bugs. I wanted to use this to take notes at a meeting, but having used it for 5 minutes I get a strong sense that it is prone to crashing and there is a risk that I could lose all my notes, as I have done many times with the Work app.

### 2/5 — Distorted on iPhone 7 plus

*2017-04-11*

The navigation bar at the top is distorted on the 7 plus...
