OneDrive Save button and Folders grayed out on iPhone but other clouds are not

Gloria,

Has there been any further updates from your developers? As you can see when I first wrote this question it has greatly affected millions of people and businesses around the world. 

Surely there is a  fix, a work around or amendments that can be made to the current version of OneDrive for iOS that can have the same functionality as  Apple Files app without having to use the Files app. Especially if it is security authetication issues between the apps, maybe a silly suggestion as I am no guru but why not cut out the root problem and develop and upgrade your own app to do exactly or better of what the problem app can do? No integration and working completely out of the one app. Problem solved then.

I just posted this as a comment to my article:

“Myself and people that have contacted Microsoft support are now receiving similarly worded responses that essentially say - we know, we took it off line so that we could work on stuff and we don’t know when we’ll be done.

It’s been weeks now and this is a shining example to every company, project manager and IT department in the world of the exact way NOT to do things. 

NO warning

NO communication 

NO ETA of outage time

ZERO care factor

...for a major and what seems a [at least somewhat] PLANNED outage effecting MILLIONS of people and businesses WORLDWIDE.

What repercussions are there? NONE. What can we do about it? NOTHING. Are there any laws against what they’re doing? NO. We are completely at the mercy of this god. 

Should we go through the pain and additional cost of moving to a different supplier? Why? They’re all as bad as each other and Microsoft have an absolute strangle hold on the market with Office. 

Millions, the victims of Greed Wars!”

Also OneDrive App does not allow for the file to be named after making amendments when trying to save a copy and just overwrites the file. Major flaw.

Agree!

I just received a very sinilarly worded reply. Just terrible! They take it offline with no notice and with no estimate of outage time, which has now been weeks. I’m speechless. 

At the absolute very least they could have managed this with communication. This is a perfect example of how NOT to handle things like this, on the grandest scale, where it has effected millions of people worldwide. My article is even more relevant now because we are completely at their mercy. There is no law against what they’re doing and they obviously know that they can do it AND get away with it with no repercussions - what recourse do we have? Is there any hope of compensation? NO.
