GeoGebra Graphing Calculator 4+

Several unsupported features

1. This MAS app doesn't allow me to login with Google. It reports the web view is unsecure.

Developer is already aware of this issue

2. The app doesn't support rendering 3D graphics.

They told me to use GeoGebra Classic 6 to use 3D functionalities.

3. The app does not display avator correctly.

Developer Response ,

Could you please send us more details to support@geogebra.org? Thank you!

Dev doesn’t understand web vs. desktop apps

This is a web app masquerading as a desktop app. And they can’t even do *that* correctly. If you attempt to save a file, it wants you to sign in to the website. You can choose to continue without signing in, and it then does… nothing. No attempt to save the file locally, no feedback, just… nothing. Instead, you have to choose “Download As”. But then if you change you mind and decide to sign in, the sign in button or menu option does… nothing. I guess nobody changes their mind, because once you say you’re not signing in, that's it. If you then try to close the app (even after using the “Download As” option), you’ll get an ‘unsaved data’ warning, which offers to save… that is, save online, which will fail because you didn’t sign in, but the error will say ‘check your internet connection’. *Then* it will offer to save locally, using a different dialogue than the “Download As” did.

Oh, and if you use the online save, and want to keep a local copy too, their solution is to download the file from them, instead of saving locally from the app.

There are many other UI problems, but why bother listing them. The devs don’t care, because they want you to use the web app.

Well meaning app, lots of polish, horrible execution

This developer fails to understand the basics of user interface so as to make this app unusable. I was lookig for an upgrade of sorts to the default Grapher. The natural, universal menu bar is eschewed in favor of menus buried for no apparent reason under a three-line hamburger button. Options are further hidden behind "show more" and "show less" buttons. "Show More" acutally removs all the buttons from view. Your time is valuable, use it on anoher app than this one. As for the developers, I sincerely hope they can learn, and completely overhaul this terrible user-interface.
