Ratings and reviews

Constantly logs me out, takes forever to update chat streams, cancels uploads constantly, and I can't easily reach my timesheets compared to how easy it is on a computer. As a side note: the website on the computer takes forever to load (minutes) and the time tracker app crashes my computer constantly now, and it didn't use to do that before the last update.

Application works well, has simple, clear UI, easy to understad, therefore easy to use. I only have two complaints: The notifications tend to come a bit late and download speed is pretty low. By which I mean downloading files uploaded directly on Upwork. But, it is really good App, so I rate it highly and would recommend to use.

Can't hide or archive messages. Annoying navigation and menus. Constantly logs you out. Notifications aren't reliable. Fees are extremely high. Not enough "connects", forcing you to pay them for the luxury of connecting with customers you could talk to yourself. Did I mention they changed it so that you have to "bid" and fight amongst your fellow freelancers, Vs everyone having a fair chance at applying like they used to do it? This "bidding" makes you purchase more connects. Not happy. UpFees.
