Same here. With a really reliable connection (symmetrical 500 Mbps fiber, via Ethernet). It's really annoying.

How much longer before the non-responsive paper issue is resolved? It's been almost 2 days now which is disgraceful

What's interesting: this is the same issue a user described a month ago...only now more widespread. It's crazy to me that a company with upwards of 5k employees can have such a degraded performance for this length of time...3 days. It makes me think it's a bigger issue. I suppose you'll encounter dimished returns by throwing more engineers at the problem.:thinking: but not good having a great product that is unreliable. I had a presentation today and I was building it in Paper...1. it slowed me down considerably 2. no offline mode - prevented me from continuing my work 3. didn't look good when I'm trying to sell the usage of this product to my team at large.
- inciteimages8 years agoExplorer | Level 3Hi. Tried incognito window, alternate browsers, disconnecting, reconnecting etc etc ...without the ability to work offline and with continuing issues I had to give up. Moved back to Mac Pages... and I was able to invite outside users to collaborate. If only I had a proper cross platform solution... I had high hopes for Paper. Hopefully the bugs will get ironed out and if so... drop me a line :-)

I ran out of patience. This is day three of Paper being unavailable with no meaningful updates. Very poor customer service, very poor indeed

Totally agree
