Very functional!

Available on my computer and also accessible on my phone. Useful when waiting somewhere. Has helped me to organize.

Love this app

I can work on my phone and computer at any time and don’t have to pay anything witch is amazing because paying to write is just ridiculous. But I enjoy how it’s organized and it helps me with my writing a lot!

Syncing is NOT guaranteed: your work may get lost

Ok I really love using Google and all of the products since they all work and play well together - I just want to get it out there. My one beef: I was making notes for my exam and I was working on my iPad Pro (10.5 in). I was connected to WiFi at Denny’s since it was the only place open past 10PM (Starbucks had closed). I was with my classmate doing some last minute studying. Usually, Google Docs will tell you that you are not connected to the internet. However, when I was working on my notes it looked like it was syncing properly. Since I’m working on the Google Docs on the iPad, I assumed it would save; the difference with the web version is that the web version will say “All changes save in Drive”. I had 4 hours of important notes for my exam that I created between the hours of 1am - 4am. Well, guess what. When I woke up at 11 am to leave for the university and I finally arrived early to review, I checked my Google Docs. It only had my notes before 1AM! I LOST ALL OF MY NOTES between 1am - 4am! There’s no version history record, zip, nada! I was panicking obviously since it was exam day. AND you know what, I got my grade after the exam, and the majority of my mistakes were from the notes that was missing! So I think there’s a problem here: Google Docs for iPAD is NOT reliable. It should save automatically to the Drive but if it CANNOT, it should 1) give an alert that it is NOT able to save to the Drive 2) save a BACKUP into Files in the iPad until Docs in the iPad can sync with Drive. **** Tip: Do NOT use the iPad version of Docs (I am using the current version as of writing this review). Instead, use the web version. If you are a student who totally got screwed like me, my advice is that you use your iPad to listen to your lectures or watch the PowerPoints, and write your notes on the WEB VERSION of Docs. *** Note: I checked my Web version of Docs and looked at the version history of the problematic note and it says that the only version Docs has is from TODAY (2/1/2018). But it has ALL of my notes before 1am on 1/31/2018. I have been working on my notes in my Docs (iPad) since 1/24/2018! WOW! I. CAN’T. EVEN!

Love it!!!

I love this app! It helps me finish all my assignments for school right from my phone! I also love that you’re able to work offline, so I can work on the go as well.

my exclamation

I really like this app!!!!!!!!!

I love google docs

This app makes it extremely easy to access documents and share with other people! Love it!

Nice

I really like this app because I can get my schoolwork done and I don’t have to go out a buy an expensive Crome book.

Could Be better but still pretty good

Not as good as docs on the computer but handy for when you are on the go

Useful, not amazing

The obvious best thing about google docs is I can work on a document and then bring it up on some other device and continue where I left off without old school worries of transferring a file! (I know that ages me) It does get annoying though that the editing availability seems to depend on the type of device I’m using. Sometimes I can do something and sometimes it’s not available.

Awesome!!

I have loved using Google Docs for projects and making pamphlets for work, it is an amazing tool to be able to use. It is a real step forward and technology!

Why remove the password protect?

I really liked this app. I’ve used it to write a few short stories but since I can’t password protect them anymore, I guess I’ll have to find another app that will allow me to use a password. Too bad. I really liked the app.

Definitely Useful

It’s really nice for school projects, but also really just writing in general. Though sometimes it gets a little confusing.

It’s an App

The app is insisting on a review, so here it is: Docs is an excellent app for doing word processing in the cloud the Google-Way.

This app is wonderful

it’s so easy to use and i get my work done in a fast and efficient manner on it. it also has a better viewing format than any other app.

This app is my saving grace

I’ve had so many short stories, novellas, and full novels saved by Google Docs. When my computer crashed and had to be wiped (since got a new one, but the loss was felt!), I was terrified I’d potentially lost over ten years of writing. I’d switched to Docs about a month prior and hadn’t realized it was all still there until I opened the app on my phone and saw everything was right there. It was a huge relief. My only issue with the mobile app is that it sometimes lags as I’m typing, and I can be three sentences ahead before it finally begins to stutter out the first. It’s so frustrating, especially when I see tons of typos and have to rewrite it all. I’d thought it was my old iPhone 4, but it’s the same with the iPhone 8 now too.

Really useful and free

Lifesaver for school work, especially last minute school work. Never let me down.

Pleasure to use it

I am surprised at the ease of use

For accessibility with VoiceOver

Im a very good user of technology with my screen reader. Typing is a hassle, I wish google would listen to me and improve their accessibility, Id be glad to test it. And also, its a hassle to type with a Bluetooth keyboard. It will say letters multiple times even though it doesnt type it, and

Issues

Disappears after a short period of time after minimizing. The folder structure disappears after closing a document, making you hunt for the containing folder again. Good for one document use but not for professional use.
