Ratings and Reviews
Questa è Apple
Quando la gente mi chiede perché ho un iPhone rispondo che, più del dispositivo in sé, a fare la differenza per me è la comunità di sviluppatori indipendenti e dedicati come questo.
Inaccettabile
Cercavo un’applicazione che potesse sincronizzarsi con Google Drive e modificare i file txt salvati lì senza passare da altre applicazioni.
All’inizio funzionava benissimo, quindi ho deciso di acquistare la versione completa.
Da circa una settimana a questa parte succede una cosa veramente fastidiosa: dopo una mezz’oretta di utilizzo, si può ancora scrivere, ma nel momento in cui si cerca di uscire dal documento o fare qualsiasi altra cosa l’applicazione diventa inutilizzabile, non risponde ai comandi e se si cerca di riaprirla crasha.
L’unica soluzione è quella di riavviare l’iPad, dopo il riavvio si apre tranquillamente, ma tutto il lavoro che hai fatto prima che l’applicazione decidesse di fare i capricci non c’è più.
Assolutamente inaccettabile, ho perso ore di lavoro per questo motivo. Fatevi un favore e rivolgetevi su altro.
Developer Response ,
Hi,
I’m sorry to hear about your bad experience with the app. Unfortunately, the unresponsiveness and crashes comes from using Runestone with Google Drive.
I have previously looked into this issue and found that the File Provider exposed by the Google Drive app is unstable and will occasionally cause deadlocks that I cannot workaround in Runestone. These deadlocks must be addressed in the Google Drive app.
Best regards,
Simon
Eccellente
Applicazione ottima, non ho riscontrato problemi, fa tutto quello che deve fare e lo fa bene. 5 stelle meritate.
Developer Response ,
Thank you for your kind words!
Best regards,
Simon
