| 2024-11-26 |  | | Love Asana, hate their Android app UPDATE 11/25/24 The Android app continues to be pure garbage. There have been ongoing major synchronization issues with the Android app where changes don't appear and the app keeps locking up and freezing. Updating tasks, setting task schedules, sorting and organizing tasks, and really any changes whatsoever that you make on the Android app over 50% of the time don't appear properly and you have to reload the app to see changes and clear cache to fix crashes. |
| 2024-09-23 |  | | Update... everything has gotten substantially better over the past few years, but recently took a small step backwards. App is now laggy and can't catch up. Hopefully it'll get resolved soon. App is still lacking... - When typing in a field for editing a task or sub-task, the phones keyboard covers the field. If you try to scroll down, it deselects the field. |
| 2024-07-14 |  | | The UI design is really good so far, but I've yet to make heavy use of it. However, it is rather annoying to constantly refresh the project board every time I add, move, or rename a column because the change doesn't immediately appear. Props to the developers for actually implementing a pull down refresh gesture in the first place. That's pretty rare. I'm putting this minor bug here since there didn't seem a clear way to provide user feedback in app. |
| 2024-05-12 |  | | it's ok. the desktop app is better. it's nice that the two synchronize with each other essentially instantaneously. the phone app defaults all your new tasks to this annoying 'do now' category and you can't change it or change the default. so if you want to create 5 new tasks quickly on your phone and sort them into the proper category you have to do it all one at a time. the collaboration options are similarly limited which actually makes the paid version *less useful* than the free version. |
| 2024-05-11 |  | | Love Asana for its flexibility, which makes it great for easily managing my daily to-do lists and all sorts of personal projects. I'd give it five stars, but the widget recently stopped working, displaying an error message that reads: "Something went wrong with this widget. Please reconfigure or open the app to get the latest updates." I've tried both with no luck. |
| 2024-04-19 |  | | The app is actually quite good .... the customer service leaves a LOT to be desired!! They billed my card 4 times ($150 per time) when it was supposed to have been switched temporarily to a free acct. I was talked into this vs canceling. Well now it IS canceled! I will fight for my $600 back. They charged my card without authorization. Their service dept was useless. They caused me more hours of work and still did not refund....... BEWARE!!!!! |
| 2023-10-25 |  | | Almost exactly what I was looking for. Tremendously flexible but with a lot of power behind it. Being able to visualize things in multiple different ways is an absolute game changer: lists are handy in some cases, but for my weekly planning being and to see a calendar view is perfect, and having a board is what I need when I'm not the only one doing stuff. Oh - and automating activity (like notifying me when someone changes a status)? Absolutely epic. |
| 2023-10-21 |  | | New bugs make the mobile app seem unreliable. I'd be happier with the 2015 version. (1) When re-ordering tasks on mobile, the item "jumps" back to it's original location before jumping back up. Cognitively, this visual movement makes no sense. Also, it makes my eyes and head hurt. Worse, more than 75% of the time, the item "jumps" back to the original location, "jumps" up to the dragged location, then suddenly appears back at the original location. (2) Trouble editing task. |
| 2023-08-03 |  | | This would be a great planner, if it actually showed your recurring tasks in future months. For some reason, it only shows the next task, even if you have set it to recurring (and will only show the one after that when you've checked it as complete). For instance, if you have a recurring meeting on Thursdays, and you go to make an appointment for somebody next month, or the month after, it won't show your meeting that's on Thursdays, so the actual planning functionality is limited. |
| 2023-01-17 |  | | Recently this app has started crashing, adds random spacing between lines in descriptions and doesn't allow edits, and no longer shows all tasks. I've also been frustrated for a while that you can't use tags in a personal account, and that they removed keyboard shortcuts and the ability to total hours. The latest changes are the push I needed to switch to another system. |
