STILL NOT optimized for iPad Pro

I don’t care what the app developers say, this app STILL does not work well with iPad Pro. I reviewed this a few months ago and basically nothing has changed. The image quality is terrible for the app, which means the app is meant for older generations and not iPad Pro, like the developers have claimed. The program itself works great on a computer, but since I’m reviewing the app, I still cannot give more than one star. Additionally, there is no option to print the drawing PDF that I assume is made to be able to print out or download to be able to draw along with the video, rendering the drawing pdf useless on this app.

I would love it if the developers could contact me so I can send screen shots of what the app looks like on my end, because it seems like they think it works fine for the iPad when it definitely does not.

Response from developer

Hi, We've just rolled out changes to address the image quality - this was related to some new security settings on our video player, and has been fixed. The Drawing PDF is not meant to be used in the Drawing Pad - it's simply a PDF for students who wish to print out the images and draw on paper (we had several requests for this feature, so that's what the PDF is there for). Regarding the back button - please email us at support@drawittoknowit.com so that our engineering team can have a look at it. We certainly don't want users to have such a frustrating experience in our App, which distracts from its educational mission.

Nearly great

Great lectures and content, however the drawing quality is so poor that it makes it nearly useless to me to actually draw on it. If the drawing quality was better it’d be pretty awesome.

Hi, we're rolling out a totally revamped Drawing Pad this summer (2020), and hope that you'll be able to check it out!

Quality

Love how organized it but I feel like it but the app need some help with quality imaging make it a bit difficult to use

Needs tracing feature

Loving this app so far, however I’ve noticed a few areas of improvement.

1. Tracing would be TREMENDOUSLY helpful. As in, when you are showing the video in tutorial mode, have the background slightly lighter so that you can follow along tracing without being distracted by the provided text.

2. The thinnest option for the writing is still a bit pixelated/not as clear as it should be.

3. Allow for creating a study plan from various courses (I bought the medical student pack, so let me mix board prep and the integrated endocrine course).

Thanks for leaving such detailed feedback and useful suggestions! We will look into creating a less opaque tracing image and allowing for Study Plans that incorporate tutorials from different courses - and, of course, we'll look into the sharpness of the writing tool!

This is a scam with auto renew. There is no delete auto renew button

These guys are charging my account without giving access to delete auto renew. This is really thuggish and plain wrong.
Ince they have access to your account,they will get your money wether you want it or not.

Response from developer

The instructions for how to cancel your subscription and request a refund are available on our FAQ page, and require that you go into your iTunes account. These instructions are also provided by our customer support team to those who email us regarding cancellation. Apple does not provide us access to your iTunes account or we would do this on your behalf. If the "cancel auto-renew" button does not work during checkout, please contact us, as this button is meant to protect customers from subscriptions they do not want.

iPad Pro

The app looks awful on the iPad Pro. :/ definitely not optimized for iPad Pro. Very misleading. Not sure how it has such a high star rating.

Needs updating

Very cool concept. I think they need to update the app for the newest iOS because it is not allowing me to draw and play the video simultaneously on my new iPad 6 generation. Once this is fixed it will be a 5 star app!

Response from developer

Hi! We've just rolled out some changes that fix this, and you can now use the Drawing Pad over the Video Player! Hope that helps, but, if you continue to experience issues, please email us at support@drawittoknowit.com

Good

I find this app quite useful- nice concise summaries of conditions. It would be good to be able to download for offline use.
Small, but annoying issue issue: when going to search something, as soon as you start typing the search bar jumps to the middle of the screen and you have to click on the search bar again to carry on typing.

Can’t hear

None of the videos have sound on iPad Pro all of a sudden??? I need to use this ASAP and I’m paying so I need it to work, please fix

Response from developer

Hi, please see our FAQ page on audio issues - this has to do with iOS settings. https://drawittoknowit.com/faq/about-draw-it-to-know-it/videos-in-the-i-os-app-do-not-have-any-sound
