Microsoft PowerPoint

I really like Microsoft products however when you’re trying to type on the small keyboards that you have with your phone. You really lose out on accuracy and sometimes because of the size of your fingers you may press the wrong button’s and so forth. However if you got the time you could probably do some productive work on an app like this but it’s not something that’s going to happen very quickly. And also sometimes some of the functions that are easier to get to on the full program seem like they’re either not on this program or hard to get to because of the number of menus that you have to go through. Nevertheless it is worth it to have this program the more programs a person has the more options they have so I do like the program overall however there is a certain curve that you have to get over.

Edit: Found it… apparently you have to have the virtual keyboard on and not using an external keyboard…. Which means when I want to copy/paste I have to select the text, turn off my external keyboard, turn keyboard back on to regain half of my screen, find the new place to paste to, turn keyboard back off to get the paste button, & finally turn keyboard back on. Edit Con’t: Why would you punish those of us who prefer not to lose half of their screen to a virtual keyboard??? The copy/paste button used to be on the button bar with an external keyboard. Now its this stupid box thing… I bet whoever over there that made the change brags about it… fire them (see below). I now say it was done to sabotage your app. Or you were hacked… might want to change your password for updates… Because no one could have made this a conscious decision unless they willfully wanted to hurt your users… Something as basic as copy/pasting text should not be a chore to find. It used to be an icon on the bottom that was aggravating and cumbersome, but it was there…. it’s now completely gone to the point I cannot find it how to do it and Google searches are not yielding results… Just stop making simple things difficult… find the programmer that hid it and fire them. Someone somewhere in your company knows who did it. They must have did it to be funny at best or intentional sabotage at worst. No one in their right mind would make copy/pasting text anything but user friendly. Other than that, pretty satisfied.

Displaying my PPT on PowerPoint on my phone would save me from downloading a third-party app, so I naively thought I would open my PPT in PowerPoint instead of saving it to my device. Oh, foolish me. When I went to save the PPT from PowerPoint, after confirming it displayed okay, I was greeted with a prompt informing me that in this app, without a subscription, I cannot save a PPT to my device. So I had to close PowerPoint and open a third-party app that didn’t gatekeep basic functionality like saving a PPT you imported. What is the point of using a Microsoft service when it is going to hassle me for trying to use such basic functionality? What service cost are they incurring by me saving my own PPT onto my own device on my own network that requires me to pay them almost ten dollars a month? Why would I ever choose to pay for this software when it is so petty upfront and when there are so many other options? And what possessed me once again to use any Microsoft software knowing that I have regretted it every single time? I suppose I will never know if the premium subscription features are worth the price tag, since it looks to me like Microsoft is charging the subscription cost of an actual service with actual overhead to unlock basic features that are already in the software I’ve downloaded.
