### 4/5 — LOOK at this pls

*2022-05-03, version 1.2*

My screen turns 100% black when I try to copy something and this has been a problem for 2 years based on reviews from 2 years ago. Doesn’t work at all but I love the idea*

*Four stars.     Thank you developers!!!!!!!
You have the right idea

### 4/5 — we need a photo option

*2020-01-06, version 1.2*

great app, but please allow us an option to take pictures. it’s troublesome to have to take a video and then extract an image from it.

### 3/5 — Fun, but...

*2019-12-27, version 1.2*

I’ve only tried this out just for a little while, but I’ve run into various issues.
While it can work, it seems to mostly work with drawings, more notably, nondigital drawings. With pen or marker. It was pretty disappointing how much it struggles to take a photo of the screen but be so good with colorless marker drawings. So I feel like it can tend to limit your capabilities if you don’t own certain tools. I’m not sure at all what I’m doing wrong, but all my digital drawings have big cropping issues...
But it is still an alright app that’s worth the price.

### 4/5 — Great for kids and artists - almost!

*2019-08-24, version 1.2*

Honestly this is a very fun application and great for traditional doodles and bringing them to life. 

But what about uploading images from your camera roll instead of taking a picture? Or for (so called as myself) power users to choose the frames per second if you only have a few images to animate? 

Hope to see something like that in future updates, will be showing to my art friends to “roger rabbit” some stuff into existence. ^^

### 4/5 — The tracking is amazing

*2019-07-27, version 1.2*

But any chance of adding a PNG import feature so we can import some higher quality animations into it?

### 5/5 — Superb

*2019-06-17, version 1.1*

I really like this app I’m an art teacher and the possibilities for this are huge.

### 5/5 — So cute!

*2019-06-17, version 1.1*

This is great is you’re a doodler that likes to draw up little characters or shapes. The AR planing is good if a little bit wonky at times. It’s a new app, so I won’t take points off for that. I love doodling up little friends and placing them all over the place.

### 5/5 — Duuude

*2019-06-14, version 1.0*

I love how they showcased the best because I woulda given up but now I know what possibility exists for me if I just put my mind to it. Thanks for the motivation!

### 5/5 — Simply Magic

*2019-06-14*

The simplicity and usability of this app is magic. It is a soothing balm for the imagination. Love it!

### 5/5 — Really good

*2019-06-13, version 1.0*

This is so nice to use,, I hope you can add the crop option soon !

### 1/5 — Stopped

*2022-06-12, version 1.2*

Your game is to bad😡

### 1/5 — Trash dos not work!

*2022-05-25, version 1.2*

Still don’t work from the last time I tried.

### 1/5 — No option for copying doodle

*2020-05-28, version 1.2*

When I open the app there is only video recording button. There is no option for copying doodle. Please help or give my money back.

### 1/5 — :( updates are ONLY for Patreon

*2020-05-12, version 1.2*

When I bought this app in 2019, I was excited to hear about the “beta” that Patreon users had access to. It’s much better and easier to use. I was hoping that in a few weeks the updates would be pushed to the app stores. Sadly it looks like you need to pay monthly to the Patreon to get access. Maybe some day us lowly users who paid for this app will get the cool updates?

### 1/5 — Didn’t work on two separate OS

*2020-04-27, version 1.2*

Tried this on my Galaxy Note 10 and brand new iPad Pro, and it wouldn’t work on either. Just a big black surface with a few random details. I’m sad, wanted to use it on some kid education videos and thought since both devices are AR enabled it would work great. I guess it’s time for some more software development

### 1/5 — Garbage app

*2019-09-02, version 1.2*

It doesn’t let you draw what you want, and it doesn’t let me load a drawing I made from another program. Waste of money and time. Very disappointed.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2019-07-27, version 1.2*

I try to copy my sketch, but it doesn’t work and it just shows 100% black

### 2/5 — Ehhh..

*2021-04-25, version 1.2*

The idea is really great but it’s executed horribly. There’s no way to export a digital image onto there so if you have a doodle on your phone too bad can’t use it. After that I tried making a stickman but only half of the stickman appeared and it was extremely thin and faded. Kind of like a printer with almost no ink. Then I tried with marker and it worked but half the color wasn’t even there and it won’t let me erase the extra post it note it picked up for some reason. Like I said great idea by executed horribly.

### 2/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2021-02-13, version 1.2*

Don’t waste your money ... this is very under performed app ... specially the tracking part of ur drawing colours are also not customise easily

### 2/5 — Don’t hold your breath for updates.

*2020-06-06, version 1.2*

App is ok, but instead of updating it for everyone, the dev is now using a Patreon and testflight “beta”. Not cool man. Would not have purchased this had I known this was the path it was going to take.

### 5/5 — BEST APP EVER

*2024-04-17, version 1.2*

so exited to be able to bring creations to a new level I didn't even imagine was possible. definitely recommend to anyone who wants to make their art come to life ... 11/10 for me

### 5/5 — Great app, little wonky but all the more great

*2019-11-08, version 1.2*

I’ve been following this app since early development and I’m so happy to finally have a phone that can properly utilize it.

### 5/5 — 白抜き相談。

*2019-10-16, version 1.2*

周りを白抜きする際に絵の中に含まれる白部分は抜かれずに残ってしまいます。
そこも抜ける設定も欲しいです。

### 5/5 — I love it so much, im literally gonna marry it

*2019-08-09, version 1.2*

It is worth 2 bucks, you can literally take an image that you made on a drawing program and stick it into real life

### 5/5 — Staggeringly fun

*2019-07-28, version 1.2*

DoodleLens is for interesting, interested, curious, creative people and will reward your exploration in powers of magnitude.

It’s blooming brilliant.

### 5/5 — カラーに対応！！消しゴムも実装！

*2019-07-26, version 1.2*

アップデートによりフルカラーの絵もスタンプできるようになりました！！今までは単色のスタンプしか出来なかったので、複数色でスタンプしたい場合は、色ごとに書き分けて何回もスタンプを押すという版画みたいなことをしてましたが…フルカラーでポンと押せるようになったので、グッと表現の幅が広がったと思います。短期間でこれだけアップデートがあったのは本当に嬉しいしすごい！また、影などでどうしても変な風にキャプチャされてゴミが入ってしまうことがよくありましたが消しゴムの実装により、キャプチャ後にゴミを消せるようになり、より理想的な形でスタンプできるようになりました。
周りを白くしないといけないので、コピー用紙をいっぱい机に並べて撮影してたりしましたがクロップ機能も入ったことでそんな必要はなくなりそうです。
かなり処理負荷が高いようで、起動してすぐiPhoneがアッツアツになりますが(笑)
高機能だしとっても満足です。めっちゃ楽しいしとにかくオススメです！！

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2019-07-26, version 1.2*

Fun app then can bring you hours of fun, lots of updates for new features, endlessly creative :)

### 5/5 — Absolutely love it

*2019-07-18, version 1.1*

My startup actually does 1-minute drawing sessions every day as a group. This app has made that so much more fun. I want all the features.

### 5/5 — Get in on this app ASAP

*2019-07-12, version 1.1*

A very promising app with a respectable creator and exciting community!

### 5/5 — Endless fun

*2019-06-19, version 1.1*

Seriously this is a smart little app. I love it.
