  • Paid then taken away

    I paid for workbook and used for a while. Later after update i no longer have access and must pay again for same content. Be careful.

    Please reach out to appsupport@handwritingsuccess.com with any issues you have, and we will be happy to assist. Be sure to check the "Restore Purchases" menu item if your purchase or free trial doesn't show in the My Bookstore, especially after update or reinstallation.
  • Lost the book I purchased 3 days ago

    I lost the book I just purchased and the restore button did not work. Please give me the book back or refund me.

    Developer Response

    Please reach out to appsupport@handwritingsuccess.com with your support questions and we will be happy to assist you. All App Store refunds are handled directly through Apple and not by the developer.
  • Pay for the app and the same price for the workbooks

    It costs the same price to buy the app as it does to use anything in the app. You can sample workbooks but you still have to pay another 12 dollars to actually use the whole book. Sad :(

    Developer Response

    We understand that you are asking for free content, and we thank you for this feedback. Please note that there is no cost to download the App and try the samples. The pricing model for the in-app purchase is similar to iBooks, but with the Handwriting Success you can actually write directly in the handwriting instruction ebook. These ebooks now start at $2.99 USD per month or $8.99 per year.
  • It’s a store app.

    You purchase the practice material within the app. It fails to make you privy to that information prior to download. Deceptive, silly and expensive.

    Developer Response

    The App is not deceptive, as you will note in the App description: "Free samples allow you to try before you buy". We hope you will reach out to appsupport@handwritingsuccess.com with your concerns prior to posting a review. We have plans to make the trial/purchase scenario clearer in the upcoming update. The app content is priced starting at $2.99 USD per month or $8.99 per year based on the ebook content of over 60 pages of instruction and practice.
  • Can’t even try

    To use this app, you have to pay for something. DO NOT DOWLOAD!

    Developer Response

    The app has full functionality on download, allowing you to use samples of the educational content for free to try before you buy. Be sure that you are using a palm-rejection stylus to be able to write in the ebooks or ebook samples, as described. Please reach out to appsupport@handwritingsuccess.com and we will be happy to answer your specific concerns.
  • Payment required to use

    It’s okay to charge for apps, but don’t publish an just for people to download then force them to buy stuff before they can use it. Just disclose purchases are required before the download to not waste our time.

    Developer Response

    We are sorry that the in-app purchase process didn’t meet your expectations. Please note the app description says, "Ebooks are now available via in-app purchase or subscription. Free samples allow you to try before you buy." The app has full functionality on download, allowing you to use samples of the educational content for free. Please reach out to appsupport@handwritingsuccess.com and we will be happy to answer your specific concerns.
  • Misleading

    It doesn’t at all mention in the app information or pictures provided that you need to purchase books in the app to practice and use the app. No mention of how much they are until you install the app. I would’ve weighed this with other paid apps if it was properly advertised.

    Edit: they messaged me to say that the app description says that there will be purchases. They mentioned free samples and that the app has books for purchase or subscription, doesn’t say the price at all in description and I have screenshots to prove it. Again, as a consumer I’d rather see the full cost because it’s easier to compare and make an informed purchase. I didn’t say it wasn’t a good deal just that I don’t want to see the prices after downloading your app.

    We are sorry that the in-app purchase process didn’t meet your expectations. The App conforms to Apple’s strict policies and in no way attempts to be misleading. Please note the app description says, "Ebooks are now available via in-app purchase or subscription. Free samples allow you to try before you buy." The ebook content starts at $8.99, and the price is clearly marked in the app. We consider it an advantage to be able to download the app for free to try it. We will endeavor to make this trial opportunity clearer in our next update. Like you, we also wish that Apple would provide a way for us to show the price in the App Description and the App photos for each of the 150 countries in which the App sells, but currently there is no practical method to do this.  Please reach out to appsupport@handwritingsuccess.com and we will be happy to answer your specific concerns, and in doing so we hope that you will consider modifying your review to reflect our good intentions.
  • It to bad 🤬

    You all know what

    Developer Response

    We're glad you tired the app, and hope that you can reach out to appsupport@handwritingsuccess.com to allow us to help you use the app better or let us know what improvements you would like to see.
  • Love

    One of the resolution is to improve my handwriting.

    I never thought that my handwriting would actually improve. I'm ecstatic:)

    I started with the adult book Write Now. Which was great but then l got book A for 5 to 6 years old. At least for me starting from there is the best method of practicing. Tracing the letters quietly is like Meditation.

    Don't miss registering on their website and watching a video of one of their workshop . Great tips and you can follow along with their adult book on the app Write Now. I'm so glad I bought the app..

  • It is amazing

    I didn’t actually pay for it, put from the samples, it looks good.
    I wish I can pay and use it.
