Cant log in

Why cant I log into the app? Ive been using this app for quite a while, and I used to have to log in every time I opened it, quite a nuisance... But now it just directs me to the web version, and after logging in (via Facebook), the app still shows Im logged out. I can use the web based version just fine, but not the app... Please help

login bug

Cant login with my google account. After I put my login details on google it goes back to the initial login page. Please fix this bug.

Love instructables hate this app

Cannot login to instructables with this app... Autodesk is obviously not paying attention because its been like this for several months.

Unusable

Buggy and unusable. Crashes when I try to explore.

Explore all is broken

If I click on it, the app crashes and I cant do anything.

This a great site but the current vision of the app is broke.

Ive been a long-time member of Instructables and its a fantastic site. If I need to make anything, I check here first. Definitely, 5+ stars. I have also used previous versions of the app without issue. However, this version of the app is not so great. I use the social media option to log in and,as others have described, this feature no longer works on both my iPhone and my iPad. Also, the categories link on the start page crashes the app on my iPad but works on the iPhone. Ill stick with with the web site until this gets fixed. Hopefully soon.

Cant login as like others

This app blows. I cant login via app. Get two errors. However, I can login using 1Password just fine.

Cant download to iPhone 6+?

Upgraded to iPhone 6+ and now the download cloud is gray and I cant download. Is this not compatible with iPhone 6+?

Website 5

Instructables.com is great. But this app is glitchy, clunky... If you have a computer you have ZERO reasons to be wasting your valuable time dealing with this app when you could be 10X more efficient on you PC.

Useless app now- please fix

Used to be great. Now you cant even login to your account, which I PAY for, in order to use the app for anything more than looking. Im over it and Autodesk should refund everyone heir subscription fees.

good idea but...

The idea is great but it failed my login twice.

Crashes every single time.

Update: 6 months later and nothing has changed. Completely unusable. Crashes every time you try to select a category. Im stuck with the web version.

Unstable

Always crashing

Great for the guy in a hurry

Finally an app for the guy in a hurry. I thought it was smart to make it quicker than having to log into the website to search through the categories for a weekend project, but I was outsmarted when I went to favorite a project in hopes of coming back to it later when I was ready to buy what I needed to build that project. I found out it took me to the website where I needed to log in anyway. So, it is basically a catalog of projects where you find one that interests you and click on it, log into the website and find out what to do from there. It didnt end up saving me any of the time I thought it was going to so Im back to square one. But it has given me ideas for projects I want to tackle in the future!

Great community, terrible app

I do and will forever love the instructables community. it is what keeps me buying autodesk products. This app is beginning to derail that train of thought. The app crashes all the time, especially when I try to explore by category. That is what upsets me the most, because thats how I fell in love with the community. Very disappointed with autodesk. Im staring to wander what shortcuts theyve taken with their other products.

SPAM SPAM SPAM

Id give this stupid iPhone app a ZERO if I could! Almost every link is REDIRECTED to "Ad King Tracking". Uninstalled it, and blocked them from my email and browser. Good riddance!

Useless

Cant log into the app. I click log in through Facebook on the app and it redirects me to the website. From there I try to log in and tries to open the app. And Im still not logged in. The app is completely useless if I cant log in. I cant favorite or follow anything. Based on other reviews, this is an ongoing issue. Deleted.

Needs instructions

Someone needs to instruct the developers of this app on how to fix the bugs...... I try to log in from the app and the app instructs safari to open for log in which in turn instructs me to log in with my password or choose one of three social media accounts... Then I am instructed to cancel or open in the app.... Problem is the website app fails to instruct the app that I am logged in... Is there a instruction on how to use the instruction app????

Crashes

App crashes whenever I attempt to change the sorting

Good but no YouTube sound.

Why is there I sound on YouTube videos? My YouTube app works fine but any YouTube videos attached to an instructable, viewed through this app, is as silent as the grave. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but, nope, still silent. Please fix.
