## Review summary

Users praised Artsteps as a free, user-friendly way to view art in virtual galleries and showcase exhibitions. However, on Android, they repeatedly report login/registration failures, serious mobile performance and navigation issues, and limited mobile functionality (creation/editing restrictions, VR issues, RTL text). Support responsiveness is also a recurring gripe. Overall, the app shows potential but requires fixes for reliability, mobile usability, and accessibility to reach broad adoption.

### Pros

- Free to use for artists to showcase exhibitions
- Very user-friendly interface for viewing art in virtual spaces
- Helpful features that support presenting exhibitions
- Positive reception of the app as a useful tool for students and educators

### Cons

- Frequent login/registration/authentication failures across devices (social login issues, 401 unauthorized, missing verification emails)
- Major mobile performance and navigation problems (laggy controls, slow app, getting stuck, inability to move)
- Limited mobile functionality and compatibility (not mobile-friendly, editing/creating restricted on mobile, VR mode not working, RTL text not supported)
- Slow or unhelpful customer support and inconsistent responses
