Take a breath and just create
Whenever I see something featured in the design awards I know it will be fantastic. When I see it has such split reviews it is rarely because the product is only half as good, and nearly always because customers donโt understand things.
Like apparently people donโt understand the cost of developing and upkeeping apps. (For that I would like to challenge anyone who complains about an annual fee being less than half the cost of a nice notebook?? Go ahead and make your own app. Iโll wait.)
The color function alone makes this worth more than $12 a year. My friend is in interior design and loves all apps that can successfully combine pretty functions with usefulness.
Other things I love :
The super customizable toolbar. I canโt wait to create my perfect set for quick doodles.
Every color has a name. That is so thoughtful and a lovely nice touch. (The intuitive and beautiful way you change colors is also top tier)
You can just keep scrolling. I have sketches pro and procreate and I love them but when you work with layers there is this... need? To make everything perfect. I find myself overusing undo instead of just going. I already love the way this allows you to just keep designing.
I canโt wait to see how this app will get better and better and am delighted to have this on my device.
Please keep up the amazing work ๐โญ๏ธ๐

Response from developer
Hi Jennifer_K, Thank you so much for your support! We really appreciate the thoughts you've shared. We are humbled to have you as such a passionate customer and can't wait to keep making Flow even better for you!
MMMmmmmm NOPE, a swing and a miss.
I got excited about this as i do enjoy a number of moleskine products as an artist, currently enjoying Smart Notebook and figuring out how it works.
But this is a BIG cash grab, a 7 day trial then you pay for a subscription, i got Adobe photo shop suit I donโt need another subscription. What i do need is a Free app with a free basic pack of pens that has once off payments for Pen Packages.
I need:
Manga/comic pens and page outlines pack
Gel pens pack
Calligraphy pack
Word/ speech bubble pack
+the different types of paper on offer.
This is a few ideas to get you guys into the market cause there are free/once off apps and i cant see what you have to offer without logging in and starting a trial.
Iโd pay $5 to $10 for a Pen Package so if 100 people bought a $10 package it just makes sense in the long run.
Then as an added bonus that you could have as a cheap subscription is creat a hub for artists to share what they created similar to Deviant art and instagram. The subscription would chase away some trolls and you would make it a safe place, now thatโs what i wanna see as a subscription not this product though.
Ill keep an eye on this product as i really wanna use it one day.
