ManIn AShed, 2024-07-14Mobile now works for the first time! For years, reading or writing to Roam from mobile was glitchy or very slow, like 2+ minutes. But now in 2024 March I have a quick & effective quick capture screen, newlines create new blocks as desired, and I can even load my whole graph in under 20 seconds. I can hopefully abandon most of my mobile workarounds now.

Alex Pear, 2024-03-07Almost there. I use Roam for everything, the app is pretty good, but a mouse on an android device doesn't work. I use Roam on desktop, and my phone flawlessly (other than the slow opening) but cannot use the mouse on the tablet so it's unuseable in that aspect, and that's a key piece in my workflow. I've been a huge believe, but the little things are starting to catch up and the market for substitutes is getting bigger. We'll see if this keeps improving.
