Started a brain on my desktop and wanted to have a way to keep track of new thoughts on the go. However, I'm unable to open any thoughts that have content. Seems like lots of other folks are experiencing issues on Pie as well. Seeing as how the mobile sync and cloud functionality was my primary motivation for purchasing a license once my trial expires, it looks like I'll be holding off until this gets sorted out.

Great idea, needs work. I've used the desktop version for a few years, very pleased with it. Installed the mobile version, had two Brains on it yesterday, today there's nothing. It doesn't respond very quickly, which runs counter to the tagline. Unfortunate, since this has so much potential.

I'm a new user and absolutely love the desktop app. On the other hand, saying the Android app lags behind is an understatement: frequent crashes when pasting links, annoying syncing in the foreground while editing, help menu not working. Overall lacking too many features of the desktop app. Would be nice to see some improvements in the near future.
