Youre on your own with picky setup
Sure, you must download a separate Drupal module, upload it to your web server, activate and configure the module and the modules permissions, and create a site entry in Drupad. All of that extra setup isnt what makes this app so bad.
What will really frustrate you is when you finally attempt to connect to your site, and you encounter helpful error messages like "Oops, the connection did not succeed." What does that mean? Did the server not respond (type-o in the address)? Did the log in fail (bad credential)? Is the Drupad module on the server not responding? Is the Drupad module, or its permissions incorrectly configured? It would have been as helpful if the error was "Sorry, that didnt work."
Add to that when you start Drupad, it forces you to establish a pin. You must enter that pin every time you start it. Why? Apple already provides a way to lock my device that works just fine. I couldnt find any way to disable this annoying "feature".
I would really like to have an app like this, but, with its unhelpful errors and complex setup, Im not prepared to waste hours and hours changing permissions/settings on my site in a guessing game to determine why "connection didnt succeed."
