Review summary

Users appreciate that Nifty's Android app mirrors the desktop version with solid project management capabilities and intuitive navigation. However, many report frequent freezing, slow performance, and unreliable notifications. Syncing issues and missing features like offline access and image handling reduce usability. Recent updates have improved stability and speed, but persistent bugs and UX flaws make the app frustrating for some Android users.

Pros

App closely tracks the desktop/web version and offers full functionality on mobile.
Good project management features, useful for both business and personal use.
The interface and navigation such as Kanban view and task swiping are smooth and intuitive.
Recent updates have improved app performance and fixed some issues.
Notifications and overdue task alerts are appreciated features.

Cons

App frequently freezes and requires restarting, especially on Android devices like Samsung S21.
Notifications within the app are unreliable or missing visual indicators.
The app can be slow or laggy, especially in messaging/chat features and Kanban carousel animations.
Data syncing issues occur, such as not fetching data from the web version or tasks failing to load.
Some core features lack polish, like inability to edit or export docs, lack of offline mode, poor support for image uploads, and poor UX decisions in navigation and task views.

2023-07-26	Al*****	Full disclosure: I really love Nifty and am a lifetime user. The desktop app is excellent but this app can be hit or miss. They often make changes and introduce bugs and if you aren't observant you WILL miss things. Also, app notification are unreliable. Watch your email instead. But the latest updates were really good and gave a needed update to the app.

2023-05-20	Er*****	App constantly freezes up and is barely usable on Android Samsung S21. Have to constantly restart it every couple of minutes to use it. Only working version is on desktop app.

2023-04-21	Pe*****	Glitchy and infuriating to use. If you are considering Nifty.. don't. By far the most frustrating project management tool I have used. The app in particular for Android users is horrendous. Constantly freezes. You have to force shut down every 2 mins. I passed this feedback on directly to my account manager and was told they were working on it and it would be resolved months ago. Still waiting.

2023-03-30	As*****	Barely usable. Anytime I try to scroll anywhere, either in the portfolio or chat, it freezes, and I have to shut it down. I use it for a few seconds maybe a minute before I have to just close it.

2023-03-03	Ti*****	Great application overall for project management but the messaging app itself is quite slow on the mobile phone. It'll start lagging after typing a few words. So I usually use the chat feature on PC

2022-10-13	Re*****	Couple issues in app: 1. Sometimes my tasks screen keeps on loading and loading. 2. Notification bell is not highlighting anything. No red marker or anything.

2022-05-17	Er*****	Great tool. App is pretty close to website experience. Sometimes it hangs on going back a page, but I just close and restart the app. Not a big deal. I really appreciate that the app is not dumbed down. You can do everything on your phone that you can on the normal website.

2021-08-05	mi*****	Good, but could be better! Please add custom notification sounds (and vibrate, perhaps) And offline mode would be a game changer. Love Nifty, enjoy the app, well worth the subscription.

2021-06-17	Sa*****	The app is great, my deduction of 2 stars is mainly due to the Sliders/carousels used on the kanban view. They are mind numbingly slow. Reduce the animation time to like 200ms or turn it off entirely - but PLEASE, don't make me sit and watch each slide animate for 2 seconds while I try to get the last board in the kanban view. This is a productivity app after all
