Crop before annotate

Must to crop (compulsory portrait orientation) image before annotate it. Once text tool selected － no keyboard comes up. No use. Buggy.

Still works but needs an update

Please update this app. It wants you to crop all your images to phone screen size. Most images I have are not set to that format and I don’t want to change them. Please allow us to annotate on the existing image size and give us the option of cropping if we want to. Thanks. I love how simple it is to add arrows and text to photos. Still Much easier than the built in Apple tool in photos.

Deleted immediately - cryptic user interface

I used annotate to open a photo in my photo album. All I wanted to do was add text to the photo. The only option it offered was CROP. I want an app that has a menu system and not a bunch of cryptic user controls that I have to spend hours figuring out on my own.

Fun and Easy

This app was very friendly for a first time user. I appreciate the different features for adding notes and/or marking up text in an image. As a classroom teacher, I think this app would be an engaging tool for teaching annotating text to elementary aged students.
