  UPDATE: Some suggestions - OP: Settings button not working

  Update: the settings button is working now, and overall, I really like the app. I do have some suggestions for improvement, just a few small things that I think would improve the app greatly. 1 - I think the app should allow for snap shapes and lines, I don’t know if this exists but it doesn’t seem like it does from what I can tell and have tried in the app. 2 - scaling dots/Lines for paper: the zoom feature is great, but sometimes with more zoom, the dots are too far apart to be helpful, especially since snap lines don’t work. Being able to scale dots and lines would be incredibly helpful, or at least the ability to customize the density of lines and dots for the entire paper, so just more options if scale can’t work I think these two changes would make the app better! Another thing: I bought the lifetime subscription, but my app doesn’t seem to be recognizing or restoring that, I don’t know what’s going on but this is the second glitch that I’ve experienced with this app, I don’t see how many glitches this could have This is a big issue, I bought the app today but if this isn’t fixed soon I will have to cancel. Also wondering if snap shapes work but have no idea because like I said before, settings don’t work! Good concept, wish execution was better

  So many bugs.

  I am an app developer and a student , and this reminds me of an app that took probably max two hours to write using a tutorial online. Not worth the price at all. Let me save you the time. Get another note-taking app, unless you want a worse version of Microsoft Notes. The developer must be new because there are so many elements of this app that are broken and unfixed. I’m willing to bet most of the four and five star reviews are from family and friends. Running on iPad OS 14 on an iPad Pro 12.9 the loading animations are extremely choppy, scrolling does not move the canvas with the writing, and the paid version is not worth it at all. The grammar and English in the app is unreadable at times, and it’s obvious it wasn’t written by a native English speaker. Gestures are unintuitive, and going to the next screen prompts the same sliding animation, which does not make any sense. Animations are choppy and it’s clear that the developer does not have a good grasp of SwiftUI transitions or pagination. For $7 get Notability or GoodNotes instead. The Default Microsoft Notes app is superior to this. It allows for infinite scrolling, the canvas moves with the text. This app does not allow for PDF annotation or export, nor does it allow for scrolling while writing, like the default Notes app. This app is just a worse version of Apples default Notes app and is not being maintained, it seems.
