  • Homeschooling

    I needed an app that I could upload worksheets into and my child can "write" on using a stylus or finger. It's perfect bcuz I don't have to keep printing and tossing (wasting) paper. And with most teacher student worksheets being PDFs, I couldn't use just any ol' paint app on our iPad. This app is my newest life savor. Thanx!

  • Skitch is fantastic

    This is such a handy app to edit and markup images, documents, and maps. I'm disappointed to learn the desktop version is being killed off. I hope that's not the fate of the mobile too.
  • Blurry picture resolution!

    I love Skitch for its ease of use and variety of features. Though, I'm having a couple of issues that make the app more of a hassle.
    I mainly use Skitch to annotate pictures. Whenever I choose a picture from my album, the picture is blurry and hard to see, even when zooming in. However, whenever I save or send the picture, it's in perfect resolution.
    The drawing tools are also hard to use, especially when zoomed in because I cannot see what I'm drawing on.
    All I want is to see pictures in full detail without being blurry, better zoom, and an easier way to use the tools so that I can see what I'm annotating.
    Other than that, the app is perfect. Once I see that these issues are fixed, I will rate Skitch five stars. Thank you!

  • Verity useful

    I find it very useful for marking-up photo in both construction and electrical/mechanical troubleshooting environments. Adding marked-up/annotated pictures for documentation and sharing ideas is incredibly powerful, and applying this tech in the workplace impresses customers and up-line management alike.

  • Great markup tool

    I had been wanting an app like this for years to markup photos and maps with arrows, boxes, and text to explain things to others visually. This app is just right in terms of having all the necessary tools without unnecessary extras that make alternatives bloated and complex. Evernote integration is a nice bonus.

  • A truly excellent way to add extra-dimensionality to images

    I've used Skitch for about five years now, used it across hundreds of scenarios, and, every time, it's fulfilled what function(s) I expected of it, even going, in numerous cases, well beyond my expectations. Primarily, Skitch has aided me in elucidating, in adding clarity and precision to my attempted communication with colleagues, as well as with a varied assortment of correspondents otherwise, doing so chiefly via its offered range of user-tailorable text, arrows, and so on. Skitch has proven itself enormously useful in every one of those instances, and I am more than glad to have it in my stable of indispensable image editing apps and applications. Way to go, devs!

    – 5.0 Stars!

  • Bug in draw mode / Not intuitive

    If you open a blank page to draw, the color and tool type icons are missing in landscape mode. They will appear again if you rotate to portrait and then back again. Tried notifying Evernote of the bug, but it's web site had a bug and wouldn't allow me to submit my bug report via Chrome on my iPad. Pretty tech and customer illiterate for a "tech" company. Other than that, the program is not intuitive. It has a lot of the key functions but the tools and interface are not well thought out. It should be intuitive and easy to use, which it unfortunately is not.

    Please, please do NOT CANCEL the Skitch project😌😌😌😤😤😫😮😳

    There is nothing else quite like Skitch in the App Store. Sketch is a great tool, with a few minor problems. Please please do not cancel this project! Keep SKITCH live!

    :: my Prior review ::

    Too many problems 😱 persisting perniciously

    ≡≡≡

    I've been using Skitch for more than five or six years on a Mac. Before they were bought by Evernote, I really liked them. Now it seems they don't do anything right.

    My current problem is, on iPhone 4s, Skitch crashes in the middle of editing an image 😱😱😱 way too often , after making five or six annotations, the app crashes, losing all your work.

    Meanwhile, on my iPad Air, the user interface is really clunky and unresponsive. Try to insert an arrow and some text and a frame or box, everything is really too awkward with the UI.

    ✯✯✯✯★ One star for Skitch. However, I haven't yet found anything better for annotating images.

  • Indispensable tool

    This is an indispensable tool for me twice - whenever I need technical support I can snap a screenshot and clearly annotate it to describe my problem to support engineer; then on the flip side when presenting a solution to friend using computer, I can again snap few screenshots, annotate, and describe the solution step-by-step. I can do all this very easily and quickly.

  • Very useful

    I'm a realtor and landscape designer and this app has come in handy while I'm out in the field. It allows me to take a photo and point things out to my client so we can communicate through text message or email. This method also works with my landscape contractor. So far, I love this app. I do wish we could have more font choices and be able to rotate the text, but maybe that's something they can work on.
