  1. [R2] Microsoft 365 Copilot 5/5 · US Revolutionary: Increased MY quality!
  2. [R3] Microsoft 365 Copilot 3/5 · US A bit behind…: 1. Model seems to be behind on docs. Answers are two-to-three versions ago. 2. When giving solutions, it blasts you with too many solution paths. Needs to be more stepwise.
  3. [R7] Microsoft 365 Copilot 2/5 · US Not customized to corporate structure: Still needs to be trained on corporate structure and the lack of database organization by verticals. If you ask it who is the leader of a project, or admin of group, it cannot determine this. If you ask it a simple who is the boss of this vertical it can answer. That is not useful… The ability to search by project, expertise, admin roles, everything not liste
  4. [R9] Microsoft 365 Copilot 3/5 · US Still missing so many features: Still missing so many features but I appreciate you all getting this beta out. One bug I keep experiencing is that when viewing a chat it keeps scrolling to the top automatically.
  5. [R1] Microsoft 365 Copilot 2/5 · US What’s Going On?: Remember when Microsoft 365 was actually functional? Before Copilot took over completely? Don’t get me wrong, I use Copilot, a lot…but there’s a specific app for that. I liked Microsoft 365 so I had one stop to open, edit, save documents in my OneDrive without having to download each individual app on my phone. Now this is too integrated and not functional. Sometimes keeping it
  6. [R6] Microsoft 365 Copilot 3/5 · US Why is this here?: I have no idea how to use this!
  7. [R10] Microsoft 365 Copilot 1/5 · US What is this garbage?: This app used to be a one stop shop for all of my documents in OneDrive. It was convenient for use on an iPhone (since I didn’t want all those apps here). Now it’s a disconnected version of their CoPilot app. I.e. None of the existing CoPilot history appears to be accessible here. tl;dr. This is garbage and if allowed, I would rate it a 0.
  8. [R4] Microsoft 365 Copilot 1/5 · US By far the dumbest AI: Constantly forget instructions, makes basic mistakes and even lies at time! Don’t ask it anything more than proofreading things or translations. Honestly Microsoft should pay us to use this joke of an AI.
  9. [R12] Microsoft 365 Copilot 3/5 · US Getting better: Was glitchy the first time I used it and didnt really get the task or made me repeat what was asked as if I didnt ask. Its much better now since the update and looking forward to the future advancements it will bring.
  10. [R18] Microsoft 365 Copilot 3/5 · US Copilot: Sometimes copilot is great! But other times copilot messes up my document so badly that I have to start over and fix the mess. One time copilot reworded everything in a way that was completely wrong and another time I asked copilot to put in bullets exactly as the highlighted example I gave and copilot did then opposite!!
  11. [R22] Microsoft 365 Copilot 1/5 · US Utter garbage: I pay monthly for 365 but this garbage app doesn’t acknowledge my purchase, so I can’t use it.
  12. [R40] Microsoft 365 Copilot 1/5 · US Can’t figure out how to fill in documents: Made me purchase app to fill in important forms and it gives me no options to fill in the data
  13. [R61] Grok AI 2/5 · US Trial is scummy: Decided to do the free trial and gens are still limited not limited like the free version, but still limited. I cancelled the trial the same day as you won’t even get the full three days because you get hit with a weekly cooldown, rendering it absolutely useless. This should not be a thing especially if you’re on a trial period or even a paying customer if I decided to actually, s
  14. [R63] Grok AI 3/5 · US Thought it was the best: The recent update now adds a time usage for the week so even when you pay for a subscription you can’t use it fully when it ends great way to scam their consumers
  15. [R19] Microsoft 365 Copilot 1/5 · US Too much login: I always need to go through the complete login process just to ask a frivolous question like whether a movie is based on a book. I’ll go back to google.
  16. [R31] Microsoft 365 Copilot 1/5 · US Terrible: Too many sig ins
  17. [R33] Microsoft 365 Copilot 3/5 · GB I like it but...: The lastest version has started hiding parts of answers in little popups that are really awkward and stifle reading flow. Please go back to having the whole answer in-line. It was a 5 but now it's a 3 because it's no longer better than my desktop. (I couldn't find anywhere for feedback in the app so I'm writing here)
  18. [R72] Grok AI 3/5 · US Grok Democratic bias: Many subjects including Court rulings options Grok kept double down on being right until I brought up Judge Kavanaugh decent then instant 180. Grok always attacked the information except for the Democrats narratives then the person is attacked by Grok example McCarthyism Grok attacked person with no reference to Venona then Grok discounted in favor of the Democrats narrative
  19. [R70] Grok AI 1/5 · US $30/Month, Constant Limits 👎🏻: $30/month shouldn’t come with such restrictive chat limits. I hit the limit far too quickly. This subscription no longer feels like a premium service. I do not recommend at all!
  20. [R79] Grok AI 1/5 · US Not worth the subscription anymore: The AI has gotten dumber, the “weekly limit” was the worst possible thing they could have implemented. Because if you run out, you can buy “credits” or whatever. Just greedy. Image generations are WAY too heavily moderated. Even completely innocent prompts get flagged! Wtf. Supergrok now feels like the free tier. Imagine paying $30 a month to still get a limit f
  21. [R97] Grok AI 1/5 · US Extremely Limited: Usage runs out extremely too fast even with $30 subscription. Waste of money.
  22. [R115] Grok AI 1/5 · US This is now a scam. DO NOT USE!: As of July 2026 they have switched from a daily quota limit for paid subscriptions over to a weekly quota and it is EXTREMELY restricted to the point that I used my entire quota for this week in a single one and half hour session. When you’ve met you limit you can pay for more “credits” but they are expensive as hell and it does not tell you how much more time/usag
  23. [R49] Microsoft 365 Copilot 1/5 · US It sucks: How do I access my apps and files?
  24. [R51] Microsoft 365 Copilot 1/5 · US Slop generator: This app was formerly the way I could access my PowerPoints and Word documents for work and presentations, and now it does nothing but scrape my data, chugs battery life, and tries to shove AI down my throat. I can't access any of my files easily anymore, and to open/view my files I need to have at least 4 (!?) other apps installed for the same tasks I used to do. AI is garbage, an
  25. [R84] Grok AI 3/5 · US How it could be better: Would be better if it had free unlimited access
  26. [R99] Grok AI 3/5 · GB Unfortunate: Although I understand that these things cost to create and run I also cannot justify the expense that comes with signing up and the free version is almost worthless as you don’t get enough time to chat
  27. [R100] Grok AI 1/5 · US Terrible: This app is genuinely terrible. The plans are way too expensive. And the free sucks as it can only use fast, and that gets facts wrong and pretty much just agrees with whatever you were saying, also, my last review got taken down. What the heck grok. They review bomb themselves with positive reviews, so don’t be fooled
  28. [R107] Grok AI 5/5 · US Best ai but: Good ai but for free users they should give way more time to chat
