Good, but problem [Edit]
I used to use Freeform almost every day, I do art on it since I don’t have any fancy drawing apps. It works well for an artist, although I do wish there were even more tools. Now, I know you might feel that there are a perfectly good amount of tools for usage, I just am sometimes looking for a very specific look that Freeform doesn’t have. So, you don’t have to change this if you don’t feel it will be useful, but I would appreciate it. The biggest issue with Freeform right now is that while I’m drawing the app will randomly close out on me. Not only that, but it’s super laggy even when it is working. So, devs, I would really appreciate if you tried to fix this. Thanks. [EDIT] It keeps kicking me out… I’m not happy. I’m going to get a better drawing app for sure. I’m just sad about losing all my work. It keeps kicking me out with no explanation. I never get to spend more than two minutes on it at a time. It’s honestly really sad. I’m sorry, but I’m going to have to lower this review to a two stars. (It was four before.) If you can fix it then I can bring it all the way up to a five, but I also know that the app pretty much never updates. So, if anyone wants a drawing app, I highly recommend investing in a *real* one instead of trying to use Freeform and lagging badly after a few months.I love this so much!!!(tldr,it’s long)
This app is super great for designing, and has been fairly helpful for my small business. For design purposes,I also recommend canva but this does a lot more. Tbh I started using it because it popped up on my screen when Apple released it and I updated my phone and I clicked and got lost drawing scribbles and figuring out how it works😅 but yeah. It’s not the best and sometimes kicks me out of the app randomly and stuff but not to bad, just a minor annoyance. The notes app is close to the same without some key features of this app, but yeah. I’ve had an issue collaborating, sometimes I do something and everyone else won’t see and vice versa, but I don’t need to collab often. I’m also annoyed messing up sizing when printing things 😑but that’s really a me thing. It’s helped me design a couple things for a party I hosted also which I liked and I fully plan on using it for my bday party 🥳 so yeah. So also after the app kicks me out randomly I click on the board agin and It says something like ”app quit unexpectedly last time you opened it” when it didn’t quit which is questionable but yeah. Sorry for the long review but overall it’s a pretty good app
EDIT: I also started creating mood boards for some things and I do recommend doing thatFrustrating
This app has the potential to be great but it keeps freezing and lagging on my brand new iPad Pro m4 8gb and even did it on the 16gb version I had. To say the least this is super dissappointing, I recently switched back to apple after a very long hiatus. I haven’t been an apple customer since the first IPhone that didn’t have a video camera yet my Nextel did lol anyway my Samsung s20 from 4 years ago has a notes app which can do similar things if not more and i often find myself using that because it doesn’t lag. I wan’t to use the IPad for this but sometimes its so frustrating and considering the cost of this device as well as my Mac Studio this is unacceptable and honestly I feel super ripped off. Everyone says Apple is the best yet this $1400 IPad struggles to do things my Old Samsung Phone from 4 years can do and more. Really Second guessing my purchases and was waiting for the new IPhone to come out but if this is a preview then I will end up sticking with Samsung which is a bummer because it seems I can’t use my phone on Mac Studio like I can for Windows. Another feature I saw the new IPhone will be able to do which is beyond me why a Samsung Phone can do this from 5 years ago but IPhones are just now catching up. What’s going on here? It’s super disappointing to think that other companies may have surpassed Apple, I hope I am wrong. Sorry for my rant but this stuff is super expensive and considering the price point should work efficiently.
