Is it worth android version2?

[valor]

I am android mlo 1 registered user and really hoped to be updated. Finally it was released and I tried. Yes calendar view and some other fuctions added that were priorly only possible in desktop version. Cool! However I feel laggy than the version1 and more complecated. I don't hate complecate but just in some way the version1 ui and interface were easy to use and simple. I know App performense could be upgraded from next updates. However I don't feel like to paying 15 dollars for version2 now. Cause some laggy and uncomfortable to use. Ao I just back to mlo1.

Hi Valor.

The answer is very individual and depends on your perspective.  For me v2 is a must.  v1 does not support custom views and the way I use MLO (on the desktop) I have views that I absolutely need on the mobile for my system to work on the whole.  v1 is useless to in this regard because I could not get my views there or even get something 'close enough' to see the info I needed at the time and place I needed it.  This was so much a problem for me  that when I did eventually get accepted for the v2 beta, I actually had to switch back to using MLO on the desktop.  Without custom views on my mobile, I had abandoned the MLO platform altogether and was back to auditioning other alternatives.  

So you see then that for me, v2 was not a luxury or even a question - it was an absolute need.

Now for your own purposes, only you can answer if v2 provides you value to want to upgrade.  There are some aspects besides the views which are nicer - I think the app generally looks better and generally flows a bit smoother.  There are still things to work on but overall I'd call it an improvement.  The 'Today' view seems to be a big want for a lot of people, personally I wasn't looking for it and still don't care (I use my actual calendar for calendaring) but the custom views do add a lot of power to tailoring the mobile to work like your desktop system and you may find value in that.

At the end of the day the way I'd look at it is this:  $15 seems expensive for an app (eps in a world of 99c throw-aways and puzzle games) but if it's a real improvement to your productivity, $15 isn't so much.  Will v2 be an improvement to your workflow?  Only you can answer that.

I'm finding the v2 version to be a lot more intuitive once I got used to it. It felt strange at first, though.

Value is subjective..I use MLO more than most apps and programs on my various devices so I do think of it more as a package. I pay around $100 to upgrade Photoshop elements every couple years, same for Dragon naturally speaking. Last pass is $12 year (had to go to premium to get mobile access).

I'm spending  $45/year for premium Evernote, compared to that  a $15 onetime upgrade to get customizable views on MLO/Android is a super good value.
