Ratings and reviews

For a start the DS Mobile option only contains the smallest subset of content, launching the desktop version from within the app is an absolute disaster, the screens are unnavigable, squashed up, can't scroll sideways to see the options or indeed the apply button. I've just had to soft reset my admin account as the two factor authentication got out sync and the one device I had to save the day that still worked was my mobile.... And it proved impossible. No one has tested the desktop option!!!

This app is utterly useless. When you need to adjust security settings, like adding a certificate or what have you, you need to use desktop mode. Going in to desktop mode is absolutely useless. Can't move the screen anywhere with my pixel 6 pro. Nor can I go into landscape mode. Very disappointed with this. Only had my DS220+ for a week and already thinking of returning it.

Latest update absolutely ruined the app. Now it's a nightmare managing multiple Synology devices. Everything became cumbersome. And we still don't have basic functionality like being able to mount shares. How can this app have existed for years with no functionality improvement?
