Useful, Poor Execution – FINAL FANTASY XIV Companion Review

The app is indeed useful for chat, checking the market board and selling items when offline. However the app suffers from at least 3 major problems: 1. Poor UI. The location of different items is not where one would think they should be. This makes the UI unintuitive and it took several days of use before I understood all the features. Additionally, for iOS, the app does not follow standard conventions. For example, any time you tap on something the app should respond with some type of indicator. Yet in many cases it does not and you end up spamming a UI element. 2. Synchronization. Beyond horrible. Enough said. 3. Value for features. Poor.
