Make Copies of your documents!
I don't do a lot of reviews and I should. I hate to give a low rating. Willing to change if fixed. However, I felt it was my duty to help someone else so that you don't make the same mistakes I did.
At first I loved the product. I created many many documents. The program was very helpful. It did exactly what it said it did. I would bring screenshots and pieces of information into the window and create a document. I did this for a week. It allowed me to clean up my files. I also did not have to worry about it going against my google storage.
This week when I signed in, I could not access any of my documents. I logged in/out multiple times. I contacted support, sent them a screenshot. They told me to do the same thing-log out/in.
The reason I rushed to write this review is because I wanted to help anyone using the product be aware that the use of this product the way it is advertised may not be good if you are using it for important items that you may need short notice, unlimited access to.
I don't know exactly how this product works in the background but just think, if these documents are in someone else's google drive and they no longer have access to their drive, you MAY not have access either.
For the past 2 days I have not been able to access the product from within Typed.
However, I could see them shared with me from within my Google drive. Is that good enough? NO. I would love to use it as advertised. However, I am not willing to take the chance of creating a document that I really need and have this happen again. Can they fix it? Maybe.
Is this a great product? Yes, when it works as advertised. Did it stop my work progress? Yes. Is that good enough? Not sure yet...
In the meantime, if I decide to keep it, I will begin any documents I create from within my own Google drive and access it from there. That will allow me to utilize the features of Typed which are awesome when they work. I am still on the fence with this one.
Could I have waited to do a review? Yes. But utilizing documents is important. Why wait to help someone before they create many many documents as I did. What happened made me very uncomfortable. I am still waiting on a fix. Crossing my fingers.
