Severely limited and corrupts data
I’ve been using the Confluence App on iPhone for 4.5 years both for work and personal. It keeps getting worse (or maybe I just keep finding unaddressed bugs).
Only some of my most recent gripes
- Cursor jumps around when editing documents. You may be typing a word or adding a new line and suddenly your cursor jumps and is editing in the middle of a URL 100 lines above your intended location.
- Creating new documents on mobile is limited to pages and live docs only.
- Documents created on mobile unreadable on web apps. I’ve created and written entire documents for work on the go just to find a blank page on web apps. Not a connection issue, as I had internet connectivity and the page was confirmed as saved in the mobile app.
- Severely limited element selection on mobile. No excerpts, tables, tables of contents, child page list, etc.
- Pauses on everything. Just opening a note for editing takes a few seconds on recent iPhone. I guess there is a server call for doing anything and everything on the app.
- Random edits. I have multiple headers and URLs with a stray character in front.
- Variety of annoying glitches. Just today, I tapped on return to insert a newline between two words in a bullet point. Every other text editor will create a new bullet point with the text after the cursor; Confluence created a new bullet point and stripped the first few characters of the new bullet point. I tried several times to make sure it was not my mistake… it was definitely Confluence.
And like this, there are many, many others that cannot even remember right now. Still using out of necessity but I am actively looking for an alternative for personal use.

Muy buenos
Calidad y precio- excelente
App is clunky
Takes you multiple times to enter something into a line. Same with adding a file/photo. Sometimes itll jump you to a different line when typing

Amazing app
Way too much of my time wasted on re-typing, re-commenting
Every single comment I tried to put down prompts me a connectivity/network issue that it cannot be commented. I’m 100% certain I have full service with 5G. Can the team please check the connectivity issue and explore caching as potential resolution?
