### 3/5 — カラーパレットが……

*2025-04-29*

機能は全体的に多くて良いんだけど個人的にカラーパレットがとにかく使いづらいパソコン版みたいに使用色以外を削除が欲しい

### 4/5 — 検索機能の追加

*2024-11-08*

描いた絵に名前をつけられるので、名前で検索かけられるようになると嬉しいです。
描き進めるにつれ、昔描いた絵を探すのが大変になってくるため…。

### 5/5 — 良い

*2024-11-05*

慣れればめちゃくちゃ使いやすいアプリ

### 1/5 — がっかり

*2024-03-01*

悪い意味でPC版のEDGEとは大違い
それなりに機能自体は詰め込まれているものの、UIが悪い方向に洗練されていて触る気にならない
操作したい項目が深い階層に普段隠れている為にタップ数がいちいち無駄に掛かるし
各種アイコンのデザインセンスが無さすぎて直感的に操作出来ない

### 5/5 — シンプルで使いやすい

*2023-10-20*

必要な機能がコンパクトにまとまっていて非常に使いやすく、説明書も見やすいです。現時点で不満はありませんが、希望は下の2点です。
・アイロンビーズやクロスステッチの図案作りに使用するので、透過部以外をグリッド線付きで出力できる選択肢があればありがたいです
・完成したドット絵をフォルダで管理したいです

### 4/5 — 概ね満足だが…

*2023-10-03*

機能としては概ね満足ですがiPadに対応していないのと、ツールを使用すれば可能なんですがもう少し簡単にPC版エッジとの連携がとれると良いですね。

### 3/5 — please improve

*2023-01-21*

please add the ability to add files from your phone (I don't have a computer) ; please increase the scale of saving pictures up to 16x please

### 5/5 — iPad対応してくれれば嬉しい…

*2022-11-18*

久しぶりに利用してみましたが、やっぱりいいつーるですね！

地味にバージョンアップして不具合などを無くしてくれてるのは嬉しいです。
あとはiPadに正式に対応して広いスクリーンでも編集出来れば言うことがないんだけどなぁ…

### 5/5 — 画面サイズiPad対応宜しくお願いします

*2022-08-31*

様々なアプリでドット絵描きを試しましたが、凄く使いやすいです。画面サイズさえiPadの大画面で使用出来るようになってくだされば嬉しいです。

### 2/5 — ぼやけるが、一手間で対処可能

*2022-08-24*

人気のあるEGDEを購入しました。 しかし、出力が8倍までしかなく、最大の8倍で出力しても、画像はぼやけます。 出力する前に、256×256程度まで拡大したファイルをコピーして作っておいて、それを8倍で出力すると、ぼやけずに出せますが、、、
100倍出力程度まで対応してくれればいいのですが。他のアプリを広告解除した方が良かった。
