Inconsistent Capability to Save as PDF file
Numerous times I am unable to export a PowerPoint file to PDF format. This is a feature within PowerPoint. Screen shows “working on It.’ After about 2 to 5 minutes, it comes saying “unable to do this action right now. Try again later.” Try again later and still have the same problem. Big waste of time. Usually have to turn Apple IPad 13 tablet off and then turn it on again for it to work. Sometimes this still does not the solve the problem. In addition, there are other features of PowerPoint that do not work such as line spacing, changing the starting number for number and bullet feature. Just a few of the problems that I am experiencing with PowerPoint
Worst
Worst app ever
The video is not working
Videos that i add them stop after a few seconds
Difficult to use on iPad
This app erased all of my progress for no reason all I did was log out of the app not even logout just get out of the app for a couple of minutes and when I went back to it, my slide that I was working on was erased I couldn’t even go back to the history and restore. It was not allowing me. I think it was because I’m using an iPad for this, but they should work on iPad users because it’s very confusing and erases your your data.
Stop asking me to rate apps

Why
Can’t add photo album on iPad, can’t add videos on pc, can’t do looping presentation on iPad, can’t export file to other app that will. Must everything be a fight with 365 apps?
👺
ni za kurca
Crash problem
It crashing for no reason
No recording
Limited features not the same as desktop
Half baked glitchy software
There are a multitude of missing features provided on PC version, nothing syncs correctly, you make notes on a slide on PC and want to read them on an iPad? Nah those notes don’t exist. The controls are sloppy and the software is half baked just go on PC what a waste of my time
ОТВРАТИТЕЛЬНО
Отвратительная интуитивно непонятное приложение. почему чтобы изменить размер текста мне нужен разобраться в дебрях каких-то??? зачем вечно выскакиваю щие окно с платными функциями? Почему обозначение кнопок и важнейших функций невозможно найти на главном экране? что это за позор
Horrible
La peor aplicación que he usado, no se si soy yo o que, que batallo demasiado con todo. Quiero mover unas letras pero de la nada se me ponen al revés, qué con eso??? Las imágenes que no se acomodan bien, en general, esta horrible; nunca había batallado tanto con una aplicación de presentaciones, como esta!!!
this app sucks yall gotta lock in
let me tell you why is app is cheeks. it’s constantly crashing on ipad, when clicking on text, the keyboard wont load, glitches when pasting images! this is the worst ppt experience ive ever experienced!! and word is like 10x worse and microsoft needs to fix their shi asap x

Saving
I find it so infuriating that the powerpoints never save. There have been so many times i’ve made sure to back up my progress, and then have gone back into the app and nothing saved. This happens to my peers constantly too and it’s beyond frustrating. With being connected to wifi or cellular data THERE SHOULD BE NO REASON SOMETHING DOES’NT AUTO SAVE.
Dev team should work for once
Removing the option on iOS to show the presentation w/ speaker nots is core. The manager of the group that singed off should be fired for gross negligence of customer workflows.
PowerPoint on iPad
This is very hard to use, very clunky, lots of glitches
Will not work on iPad
I pay for a month subscription for Office 365 Family, but cannot log into that subscription on my iPad. It keeps trying to log in to a free version that doesn’t allow saving or editing. Microsoft help is not helpful at all.
Ruined
Microsoft ruined a great iPadOS app. Why do they force one drive? Why does it take 3 windows to edit a file? Why is app response so slow? Very disappointed.
Logged out
Constantly logged out. Hate this.
Aynı hesap fakat para istiyor
Benim eski ipadimde sorunsuz çalışan power point aynı maili bağlamama rağmen para istiyor
Not User Friendly
Changes to the app format and user tools have removed the ease of use and function friendly nature of the app. I was a heavy app user. The integration of AI and “intuitive” tools have created a great deal of frustration as this is no longer user friendly or an enjoyable experience. I want simple functionality on the app not whatever this now is!
I don’t like it
I just started using this app one month back and now they want me to subscribe because of that they made it to stop working this is bullish

Doesn’t send
What I create isn’t shared like I created it.
Need additional time
Give us some time asking for opinion
Freezes
This horrible app keeps freezing when I’m working on my project, please fix it noobs.
Interruption
I am just starting and you are already asking if I am enjoying Microsoft Power Point. Can’t you let me finish first?
Pain
Asks me to restore a purchase and then doesn’t let me even though I have a subscription.
Where are my notes?
Where are my notes?
So buggy
This is hardly usable. So so many bugs. This needs so much work.
Bad
I cant Type?!?!
No encuentro mi documento
Se perdió mi archivo quiero mi archivo
Microsoft Scam
Microsoft thru godaddy is a scam. Microsoft does not accept the login info. They charge every month but do not let you log in…..
PPT is glitchy with magic keyboard
Click and dragging objects with the trackpad crashes the app. After closing the app the object that has been clicked and dragged remains on screen and moves around with the cursor. Locking and unlocking the iPad temporarily remedies the issue. UI is just as bad as the desktop version. 🚮
Make a loop option on the mobile app
Make a loop option on the mobile app
difficult to use.
it’s difficult to use
slow
recently it’s begun to slow down tremendously and lag for upwards of 20 seconds when i draw or select anything
Glitches
I am using PowerPoint to complete a project for a college class, and it keeps freezing and deleting my slides. I have had to restart my PowerPoint four times.
Broken text entry
Cannot enter text reliably; iOS default keyboard comes up, cursor comes up, no keystrokes work. My work screen space is constantly erased by notifications which are redundant every 30 seconds regarding encryption options. These notifications obscure the actual important notification that the document needs to be updated despite me being the only one editing it. Currently Unusable.
Glitches or Freezes every few seconds
It’s 2026. Microsoft has no excuse for their products to still be running as poorly as they do.
Slow/Lags out
Whenever I’m on the mobile app for more than 5 mins the app seems to freeze and I have to restart it.
PowerPoint not opening
I created a PowerPoint and it will not reopen.
Formatting pisses me off
Couldn’t download it through the app. Had to open the browser, which was the only reason why I installed this. To avoid the browser. And to piss me off even more, it decided to add a random widget before I got to uninstall, and it moved all my apps
Freezing
Everytime i do something color text related, it freezes the app which causes me to refresh my app which annoys me.
En iPad no funciona
Últimamente en iPad se traba mucho y no te deja hacer nada, desde que lo cambiaron cada vez es menos eficiente
