Very very buggy tables, 5 colomns and already solid bugs, impossible to fill the table. Unusable. On Macos too

很好用的软件

总的来说挺好用的,不过有时候会出错

Online Walmart Shopping

I most always find items at a lesser price on Walmart online. My experience has been a positive one.

Do not use this app for anything important

For the 4th time this year the notes app begins to slow down and then crash, and about an hour worth of pilot school notes disappear and there is no way to recover them. Doesn’t sync to ICloud, doesn’t show up in recently deleted. When I went online to investigate, this issue has been present since early 2019. It appears they have no intention to fix this issue either as we near the 8 year mark. Highly recommend going 3rd party
