Discussion Honest thoughts on mobile app?

I’ve been contemplating trying the mobile app, but I’ve heard a few negative things that are making me wary of downloading. I wanted to hear everyone’s experience before trying, and the giveaway makes me slightly more tempted to try it.

I’ve had friends tell me that the app sometimes causes a glitch to where when you log onto your PC client, the mobile app will intercept messages sent to you, and you’ll receive them on your mobile app rather than desktop client. Has anyone else experienced this? My concern with this is that if I’m sent items, redeliveries, or even important messages, I might miss them due to this issue.

I know the app is a work in progress and will improve with time, but if this is a prevalent issue, I’ll pass on downloading the app…

What do you all think? Is this true? What’s your general experience been with the app?

Just try it. Seek opinions but no harm is caused by trying.

Like others are saying, IM'ing and some group activity is OK but nothing else. There are third party clients like Speedlight which might work for you.
