Okay listen, we are using noodle tools right now to right a 10 page Research Paper. I love using it on the website on a computer. it is amazing, and very innovative. huge fan. but i downloaded the app on my phone so i could make citations and do anything i needed to if i didn’t have a computer near me or i could just work on it during my free time. AND I CANT. this app doesn’t let you do anything, besides look at the title of your project. you can’t make a citation. you can’t make a note card. you can’t add to your to do list. you literally cannot do anything besides look at what project(s) you have and are working on. but you can’t work on them. so why even have an app. my teacher said this app would be helpful but you can’t do anything. don’t download this app. it’s pointless. just go on your computer or laptop and work on it from there. HUGE WASTE OF TIME.
I am currently working on a historical project, and my partner asked me to check over the sources. My laptop was too far, so I wanted to do check it on my phone. I read a few reviews but still decided to try it my self in hope of the app actually working for me. I didn’t even get to log in. I was so confused by the log in menu page. I thought the ID meant my school email, so I entered it and my school email password which I used for NoodleTools. It would not let me log in no matter what. NoodleTools works perfectly on my laptop, or my computers. I don’t understand how to even get in. I saw many others with similar problems so I really do not recommend anyone to get the mobile app. I’d rather walk more to work on a laptop or computer.
i saw the bad reviews but decided to try it for myself anyways. the reviews were all accurate, all i could do after signing in was look at the titles of my two projects. it works perfectly online though, so im not sure why the mobile version is terrible. if there is any way to actually view and edit your projects, then maybe the app developers should add instructions to make it clear because i could figure out nothing. wish that i could give it zero stars. i could easily open up my laptop to work on my annotated bibliography, but im making a documentary on the history of animation USING MY PHONE, and having to email myself every image/video used is just an excessive step and a waste of time.
If the developers are reading this (which I bet you they don’t since many people already complained about this) you have some bad customer relations Many schools use either Google or Microsoft accounts but you don’t offer an option to do that. You have it on your very slow website but NOT in the app. So it is IMPOSSIBLE to use your app w/ school Google/Microsoft account. Please fix this.
Can’t sign in with my google school account. I can only use the website but it’s hard to use it on my phone. Why bother making a app if most people can’t use it for its purpose?
Unless there is some hidden feature that I’m not aware of, I can’t write any citations for websites or anything else. This app is pretty much useless, as I can only put in book citations. The only time I’ve ever used a book when citing sources if it is required; otherwise, I can just find everything I need online. I don’t know if this was meant to be the whole point of the app, but if it was, then it is just dumb.
The biggest problem is that you can’t edit your annotations of previous sources and when you tap when adding an annotation it saves the source and you can’t edit it until you go on the computer. Edit- Just went on the computer and the annotations weren’t even saved... please put more time and effort and the app and it would be great.
I do have a computer but for people working on the go, or who only have a phone it’s hard to use the website. That’s what the app is for, except if you logged your google or got mail account to it, then you can’t log in. Since that is how mast school districts identify students it’s really bad for an educational app.
There is no point of making an app that is supposed to be useful that all you can do is look at your document; you can even do that. Over all I give this app a elephants thumb down. It says that a 4 year old can use this app. Even at that age I would be board out of my mind using this app. At that age anything can make you happy. This is pathetic.
There needs to be a Sign in With Google button because most people who use this use accounts associated with their school which are associated with Google. Either that, or make it so that school accounts are the same as the personal logins. Otherwise this app is unusable to the majority of people who want to use it.
We’re doing a project in my history class and I was hoping this app would work so I could use my phone to do most of it. I got the app and I can’t even sign in because it says my ID and password are incorrect. Don’t waste your time with an app that won’t even let you sign in.
Can't write a comprehensive review of this garbage app because I can't log in. Add this feature. And while you're at it, fix all the other problems people are complaining about, because I can see this app has a very low average rating
The majority of people who use this are student and have a school email. This app is rendered useless to me and majority of noodle tools users for mobile devices. Add a proper log in, not this joke excuse of a log in or you have failed your desired function m.
Literally the dumbest app in the world; no functionality or use this app is just plain dumb who thought of this. Don't download; waste of space, and you won't be able to access anything just empty space taking up your storage.
So I use this app all the time for school, and when doing my history day homework I thought, “ I should get the app! So I can work on the go!” I got it then realized it was for scanning books. 😭 I was so sad! I never have need to scan books and just wanted a noodle tools app.
You cannot sign in with a school given Noodle Tools account or through Google, meaning you cannot access your projects if your account was created through Google or by your school. This app serves no purpose do to this rendering it useless.
About as useless an app as I have seen. You cannot access your existing project info, note cards or do much but search for a source. Some how..... Never actually got it to work.
I use this all the time at school and I thought it would be good to have this in the go. But unfortunately there is no possible way for me to sign in without a google sign in button, this must be fixed.
I can't even comprehend the uselessness of this app it doesn't help with anything and is just plain stupid if I wanted a list of all the projects I've done I could just screen shot it. Waste of time, data, and patience
I wanted this app for my college English class. But for some reason you can't even edit you're previous citations. And it wouldn't even scan my books. So pointless. Don't waste you're time with it.
I downloaded this app a few minutes ago thinking it would be great to use on the go, but it won’t let me make flash cards or put in my citation sources. This app is pretty much useless🤦♀️
If you're doing a project and you want to use noodletools for sources , like you can online . Then you will waste your time getting this app , because you can't site sources on this .
I have access to Noodletools through my school. I can only log in through my school google account, which is NOT AN OPTION ON THE LOGIN SCREEN! Complete waste of time.
U guys are so sad I can’t sight into my freakin Microsoft account with NoodleTools and I forgot my computer at my house and I am probably going to get a very bad grade on my assignment fix this. Ps.. very disappointed
Now, don't get me wrong, I love NoodleTools for web. So I downloaded the app, and it doesn't even let me login. Just wow, NoodleTools. Just. WOW. And they don't even have App Support. It just says "Page Not Found".
