### 4/5 — PLEASE PLEASE ADD

*2019-11-20, version 1.15*

Add exporting in a high resolution so you can see small details in complicated constructions. Idc if I have to wait a little while for it to render. And if possible export as a pdf file. The export resolution is WAY too low. Oh and the ability to create semi circles. Other than that it’s perfect. Great app.

### 4/5 — Классно!

*2019-05-03*

Ребята молодцы.  добавьте возможность проставлять размеры линий. Например чертеж комнаты. Прямоугольник с внешним углом. Хотелось бы проставить размеры каждой стены и диагоналей. 
Я не нашел. Если это можно сделать скажите как. Аи возможность сохранить рисунок в jpeg

### 5/5 — Great drawing app

*2018-12-07, version 1.15*

Perfect for exploring sacred geometry, this is the closest to traditional straightedge and compass drawing you'll find on an electronic device, including Mac/Windows. I've tried them all and this is hands down the best. I appreciate the cleanliness and minimalism of its UI.

Sketches has many timesaving features plus its high accuracy makes me reach for Sketches on my iPad with Apple Pencil far more than the old drawing board. I've made 80 drawings so far and I love this app! 

I wish for only a few things: being able to share sketches in vector format, night mode like in Euclidia (I would pay for this), the ability to rename or delete tags, and a setting to customize which tools appear in the toolbar and in which order. I'm grateful to the developers for offering this app for their love of geometry, even if nothing about it ever changes. Truly awesome.

### 5/5 — Astoundingly simple and complex

*2018-11-27, version 1.15*

Just works! Beautifully done. Can't wait to create with it.

### 4/5 — Ok app

*2018-09-30, version 1.15*

I started to use this app to see what the impacts of having a trisector would be, and it would be nice if the developers added the (optional?) feature to cut an angle into however many pieces. But overall pretty good app.

### 5/5 — Simple (you think). Elegant. Engaging.

*2018-08-05, version 1.15*

An elegant and informative application that makes use of the iPad to intrigue and edify.  Not the usual junk app.  Try it.

### 5/5 — Отлично!

*2018-05-04*

Не хватает сетки и возможности установки размеров линий.

### 5/5 — Awesome geometry app!

*2018-04-20, version 1.15*

Both Euclidea and Euclidea: Sketches are great math apps! Although there are countless math apps for the iOS platform, most of them are of dubious educational value. Euclidea and Euclidea: Sketches are exceptions. I'm having a lot of fun with these two apps and I hope that the developers will continue to improve and support them. Of course, I will continue to support them, financially and verbally! Keep up the great work.

### 5/5 — Просто невероятно!

*2018-02-02*

Боже, поразительно, как все-таки можно все удобно сделать. Невероятной красоты получаются рисунки! Да и еще и деньги за такое счастье не берут)
По сравнению, например, с Геогеброй, все получается значительно быстрее и качественнее.
Единственный момент - когда касание окружностей, то приходится долго с ними возиться. Очень хочется инструмент «окружность, касающаяся трех объектов», например, двух прямых и окружности.
Была бы инверсия объекта и выборочная гомотетия - вообще цены бы не было. Спасибо преогромнейшее разработчикам!

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2017-12-09, version 1.15*

Great app!

### 5/5 — лучшие!

*2017-09-10*

все ваши приложения на 10/10. ничего лишнего и познавательно. сделайте для macos, почти одна платформа. это очень хороший софт и хотелось бы иметь такой на нормальном устройстве с периферией. ваши так называемые механизмы очень напомнили программу-симулятор физики algodoo. из минусов могу отметить малое количество демонстраций и отсутствие справки по их построению. также у  некоторых чертежей нет пояснения. 10/10

### 1/5 — An app that tries its hardest to be difficult to use.

*2025-03-04, version 1.15*

I love the Euclidea game. I saw promise in this app! The samples are amazing. But there’s no way to replicate them! How do I fix a segment length? How do I set motion constraints? The “help” section is the most unhelpful section. Add a few basic examples, give us a bone here!!!!! I really want to give this app 5 stars. I will, as soon as creating a basic 4 bar linkage isn’t the most impossible thing in the world.

### 1/5 — Needs work

*2020-12-19, version 1.15*

App has many good tools. 
But I've found you cannot trim line or parts you don't want. 
Thus you cannot get the drawing you want.
Could have a better help guide.

### 2/5 — So stupid :(

*2022-06-17*

Delete

### 2/5 — Круто но бесполезно

*2019-06-14*

Нет возможности задать длину, нет сетки, да и много чего нет. Детям поиграть было интересно, для других целей не подошло

### 2/5 — Бесполезно без масштабной сетки и и возможности задавать и измерять длинны линий

*2018-11-09*

Так обидно, что все круто сделано, а этой элементарной возможности нет. Получается бесполезное приложение(

### 3/5 — Good features but lacking the ability to trim circles into arcs

*2022-09-13, version 1.15*

Do you really want to see 2 large circles and a line involved in making a perpendicular bisector? Sometime you don’t.

Also let’s say I want an arc with a central angle of 120 degrees, I constructed it, but I don’t want to see the rest of the circle.

### 3/5 — Нужно обучение

*2019-03-15*

Не хватает обучения и демонстрации

### 3/5 — Great tool but can only export bitmap images

*2018-09-29, version 1.15*

This is an amazing tool but there isn’t any way to export drawings in any sort of vector format. I emailed the developers and was told that they have no plans to add that capability. So you can spend lots of time making complex geometric designs that you can use anywhere else except by rendering it to a static bitmap image.

### 3/5 — Can't wait for the updates

*2017-06-05, version 1.15*

After seeing some of the examples in the game I was excited to make similar drawings.  However, after much effort, I am still unable to get my drawings to interact in similar ways to the examples.  I imagine future updates of this app including the ability to show the interactions between levers, pulleys, gears, cams, etc.  At the very least, the ability to define points as static or moveable, would go a long way to getting me to change my rating to 5 stars. If the developers can accomplish this then I will be the first in line to hand over lots of my hard-earned cash if you began charging for this app.

### 4/5 — It could be one of the best if…

*2022-02-14*

I am a GeoGebra user, but sometimes it feels too complicated for just doing Technical Drawing exercises.

I’ve also used GeoEnzo but is only for computer and it is a little bit too simple and not very precise.

If I could only trace just an arc of a circle. The same for coloring, just one arc. Maybe I just don’t know how to do it yet (if possible please let me know).

Very easy to learn to use it.

Is there also any way to build segments with a known measurement?

### 5/5 — Simple and perfect to explore geometry

*2022-08-26*

Love and gratitude to the developer for this great free app! It made it fun and easy to explore sacred geometry.

### 5/5 — Very good app

*2021-01-18, version 1.15*

Very good app well designed and free

### 5/5 — Please update the app

*2020-12-19, version 1.15*

Every time I save to Photos it'll freeze.

### 5/5 — Can you add ability to draw?

*2020-07-06*

It would be amazing to be able to write something by hand

### 5/5 — Замечательна доска для геометрических задач!

*2020-03-24*

Не хватает только темной темы оформления!

### 5/5 — Просто супер!

*2019-12-17*

Замечательное приложение для решения и исследования геометрических задач и для иллюстраций. Поздравляю разработчиков! Развивайте его дальше!

### 5/5 — I like to check Euclidea tasks.

*2019-05-08*

Awesome!

### 5/5 — Не хватает фунций

*2019-03-18*

Очень понравилось приложение, разработчики большие молодцы.
Но не хватает функций.
Иногда нужно принудительно задать равенство отрезков, или углов. Или задать угол в градусах, и т.д.

### 5/5 — Приложение крутое

*2019-03-04*

Но надо бы добавить сетку, чтобы определять размеры фигур.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2019-02-21, version 1.15*

Excellent and simple. Thank you for creating it and I hope you keep updating it.
