Notion's mobile app is laggy and feels like a web wrapper, making it frustrating to switch between workspaces, which discourages upgrading to a paid plan.

Notion's mobile app is not a native, high-performance app; it is laggy and clumsy, particularly when switching workspaces, which degrades the user experience and reduces willingness to pay.

Target Users: Mobile-first professionals and students who use Notion across multiple workspaces and find the current app too laggy to use productively.
