### 1/5 — C’est quoi cette mise à jour ?

*2024-02-27, version 2.0.2*

C’est quoi cette mise à jour ? J’ai payé pour un produit et vous, vous changez tout le fonctionnement du jour au lendemain sans prévenir personne. Si, vous réinventez votre application alors faites en une autres, y’a pas à modifier aussi radicalement une application, en retirant en plus la plupart des outils les plus importants. En plus de ça, vous avez rendus l’utilisation de cette application avec cette mise à jour laborieuse. On ne comprend rien, on ne sait même plus à quoi correspond les logo. On ne peut même plus choisir la taille pour surligner un mots. C’est devenu n’importe quoi là. Je mets 1 étoile mais en vérité avec ce coup en traitres vous méritez 0 étoiles. Nul, c’est nul comme mise à jour. Pourri

### 5/5 — Love this

*2024-01-13, version 2.0.2*

Beyond awesome!

### 4/5 — Great in a pinch.

*2022-07-24, version 2.0.2*

Seems to have limitations in the dimensioning department.  Either wildly too large or infinitesimally small.  Also seems to default to portrait, no option to change when printing.  One must save
as a JPG or PDF.  Otherwise, with some patience, for the price, this app is the best thing going from getting one’s thoughts on paper.

### 5/5 — Please add brush stroke function to photo library version

*2022-03-24, version 2.0.2*

I love being able to adjust brush stroke with for arrows. I’m not able to do this when marking photo library photos. Please add this function. I have premium, so even if it’s a premium effect, please do so anyway

### 1/5 — Looks Good!

*2021-03-18*

After selecting a single photo and doing a simple mark-up I wanted to delete it and work on another photo. I was unable to delete the original and therefore could not move on? Could be me or could be you have to pay ? I’ve no idea so deleted app.

### 1/5 — Annotate

*2021-02-08, version 2.0.2*

This app needs to be updated. It is two years old.

### 3/5 — Almost there

*2019-09-16, version 2.0.2*

2019-09-15
This is close, so close, but not there. 
You can’t seem to edit things afterwRds like the text in the cloud which doesn’t fit very well anyway. 
The blur tool should let you set how strong you want the blur. 
Text should let you choose size and font. This looks like the first draft of Annotatable by Ling Wang I would get Ling Wangs if it were cheaper. By the way, the pronunciation of Wang is Wong. When you see what the system is based on, it kind of makes sense, but someone screwed the pooch way back then. My wife’s name is Li Fang and it is pronounced Lee Fong. They think ang is like ahng (ahhh)(ng) so they put a “W” in front and think everyone will see Wahng. They didn’t know about the H at that point. When I was in Taiwan, they said I need to go to this address “young Ho” and had no idea why I was rolling on the ground laughing especially when this was supposed to be a school for young girls. The actual pronunciation for it was y-oh-ng Hæ (huh) instead of how it was written - young Ho.  Anyway.

### 5/5 — Love this

*2019-01-14, version 2.0.2*

Beyond awesome!

### 4/5 — Great app. Missing ability to open quickly from snapshot.

*2018-05-12, version 2.0.2*

Great app. Missing ability to open quickly from snapshot. 

Developer, I’m a paying subscriber. Please add the ability to choose your app in the screenshot action in addition to the edit location that you have. it takes more time to find in the edit section; anotable has this feature.

### 5/5 — Great annotation app!

*2018-05-05, version 2.0.2*

Easy to use to annotate pictures and share them with your friends.
