Review summary

Overall sentiment is negative. Users praise Quip's loyalty base and past performance, plus some value for mobile access and checklists when it works. The dominant issues are crashes, constant re-authentication, limited mobile editing capabilities, slow performance with large documents, and weak support for certain features. These combine to suggest reliability and usability problems have intensified in recent months.

Pros

Longstanding user base with positive comparisons to competitors (some users say Quip is better than Microsoft; another notes it was a joy to use vs Google Docs in the past).
Valued mobile access to work documents when the app is functioning.
Positive mention of checklists feature (active checklists) as a useful capability.

Cons

Frequent crashes and instability across the app (crashing when opening/viewing documents, background crashes, etc.).
Repeated login/logout and authentication friction (must log in frequently; reauth prompts; laggy sign-in).
Severe limitations of mobile functionality (essentially a viewer on mobile; cannot upload images; editing/formatting restrictions).
Performance issues and sluggishness with large documents (lags, spinner, slow when doc is big).
Difficulties with support and certain features not working (PDF feature broken for months; hard to contact support).

2026-03-06	St*****	Why oh why do I have to log in every time I open the app, then go back and click on the link to the document I want to view as the app just opened the prior one, not the one I want to view now. Ugh. It’s the little things that are bothersome.

2026-01-08	zf*****	I love the Quip mobile app when it works, as it allows me to access work-related documents on my phone. However, more often than not it is infuriating and essentially unusable because it crashes after a few seconds every time I open it. To be precise, the app suddenly backgrounds itself but appears to still be running.

2025-10-12	M.*****	the PDF feature had not been working for months. It’s so hard to get a hold of customer service or to even put in an inquiry or even send an email. In order to communicate with Quip you have to go through a 3rd party website. Very frustrating and difficult. I need to find another app that will do the same things like quip.
