That’s it?

AWFUL. This is just awful. Every one of the major spreadsheet apps is way, way, way better to use, including QuickOffice, which Google bought, and still hasn’t made to edit google spreadsheets, yet.

Things that get me this frustrated:
1) Formulas - You have to manually type it out, like you’re using VisiCalc. No tapping on a cell while editing a formula to reference the cell.
2) Bluetooth keyboard support is terrible. I can’t use tab, or the arrow keys, or the enter/return key. Using the Apple Magic Keyboard with an iPad Pro? There’s no way to escape out of a cell that you screwed up. All you have is the accept check mark.
3) Tapping on a cell doesn’t let you edit it. Nope. You have to tap TWICE on the cell - once to select it, and once to edit it. If I’m hunting and pecking with a finger, I guess I can understand that (even though it slows me down a ton), but again, it makes using a keyboard with my iPad nearly unbearable.
4) The document list doesn’t have a view that respects my folders - all I see is a bunch of thumbnails for every one of my spreadsheets, with no organization. It’s sorted by the last time I edited them, which is fine for the spreadsheets I touch frequently, and not so fine for the ones that I haven’t touched in a few weeks.
5) Copying/pasting a formula is unbelievably difficult, because the app thinks youre trying to scroll when youre selecting a range of cells.

I keep hoping that Google will care enough to make these apps good, but it doesn’t. The web interface is much better.
