Pros and cons of Weekdone app for iPhone and iPad

Weekdone app good for

Managing a team can be tough for a manager. Especially when part of the team is working remotely. Weekdone is the best tool Ive found to help me do that better and more efficiently!
PPP management done in a right way. Great app for all startup teams!

Some bad moments

- UX: swiping left on items moves faster than finger - UX: buttons are too small - Bug: Moving tasks between states doesnt work - Bug: @mentions doesnt work - Bug: highlighting text doesnt work - Bug: moving cursor in text doesnt work This is after 10 minutes of use. Back to the desktop version I go.
Seems very useful. Great interface. A little learning curve but worth it
Good to manage team tasks - not easy to use, need time to learn.
Love the idea- managing teams, collaborating, having documented feedback loops. The app is similar to Basecamp; however, it is extremely glitchy. Ex: Cant upload profile picture, has trouble saving changes to newly created team settings. Hoping there will be an update soon with resolutions.
Im impressed by frequent offers of assistance including direct phone support to help get started. My assistant and I seem to be figuring it out on our own, then we will likely take them up on some help to optomize. Once we have it mastered we will invite the rest of our small team. So far I see this as an excellent tool to help us improve effectiveness through better communication, coordination and accountability.
The service is great, I use it almost every day. I only have 2 remarks: - layout of some screens looks overcrowded, not quite balanced; padding between elements and/or size of elements should be adjusted more thoroughly both on iPhone and iPad; - OS X app wold be HIGHLY appreciated!
