연결 안됨

잘 쓰던 앱인데 갑자기 왜 연결이 안될까요 ㅠㅠ
커넥팅 로딩만 계속 뜨고 상대방이 만든 방에 안들어가지네요

Dishonest pricing

Very dishonest pricing labels. They suggest you are signing up for a 7 day free trial. But they take the year payment and give you 1 year and 7 days access. I have reported this to apple but please BE CAREFUL not to be scammed like I was

Works

Works

Not having enough features

Ok

Shape recognition

The one thing that this app doesn’t have is shape recognitions like line,circle, etc… this one feature will make it the ultimate app for video lessons

Response from developer

Hello, and thank you for the review. You can enable Recognition Mode in the Draw Tool menu to see and select shape and text suggestions based on your drawing or writing. Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any more questions.

Buggy updates

This app is on a downward trajectory. Latest update is full of bugs. For an app that professionals rely on in their daily work, this is unacceptable. What exactly am I paying for? It’s unusable.

Data Loss Issue

Subject:
Data Loss Issue: Blank Slides, Missing Audio, and Random Crashes

Review:
Explain Everything occasionally crashes, some slides turn blank white, and audio recordings disappear from certain slides. This has affected multiple projects and caused loss of content. Please investigate this issue.

So good

I loved this.I only used the free version so I only got to used one slide but that’s fine. I loved how my creative mind could flow.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Excellent, but…

Have been using this app for several years for teaching and think it’s awesome. Getting frustrated, though, that for the last few weeks I’ve been getting a pop-up asking me to rate this app every 30 minutes or so. It’s very intrusive when teaching, and irritating to be asked so many times. Whether I rate or not, the pop-up reappears shortly afterwards. And again. And again. Grrrr.

Fantástico

Utilizo todos os dias em apresentações e mentoria de gestão em saúde

Cut off writing

I’ve never had it before but when I make a video, it is cutting off the writing that I was doing on the screen.

Crashes after latest update

Crashes when accessing files after latest update. I rely on this app to teach and now I can’t access the files after the latest update. 0 stars.

Buggy

The app would randomly do odd things, like my background just turned black, the finger tool stopped moving object and would only select even if it was not in select mode. The top menus was overlapping the lock and battery icons so it was hard to tap on them. Maybe work on making this app better instead of trying so hard to make me pay for it with constant pop ups and restrictions. Adding the pop-menu for Apple Pencil Pro would also be nice. Very disappointed because the ability to use it as a whiteboard in airplay it probably the only good things is has going for it.

Amazing but…..

This is an amazing app I always use it for school, but now it says to pay. So at school time I had to use another app, please fix this.

ts sucks

Explain basics 와 차이

Explain basics를 유료로 사용하다가 한참 사용하지 않았더니 앱이 사라졌네요? 다시 받으니 Explain Everything 이란 이름으로 또 결제를 하라고 합니다!
원래 제가 결제했었던 앱을 다시 받을 수는 없나요?

Response from developer

Hello! If you previously purchased Explain Basics using your Apple ID, you should be able to download the older version from your Apple account without paying again. Please see this guide from Apple: https://support.apple.com/en-us/102417

Amazing app

Amazing app, it has different choices of pens and tools, and I love how it come with a tutorial just in case someone doesn’t know what to do. It’s free, which is great as well. There are many templates to choose from and is an amazing app to use.

Add a One-time Lifetime Purchase Option

It's a good and helpful app. It just needs the following:

- The option to pay once and have lifetime access.
- The ability to copy some slides (with their audio recordings) from one project and paste them to another project.

Thank you!

Nach Update unbrauchbar

Nach dem Versuch, ein Projekt zu exportieren, gibt es plötzlich folgenden Fehler (MCEProjectDocumentFactoryErrorDomainFehler 2.) ich bin treuer Kunde und nutze das Programm seit Jahren. Nachdem das Projekt mit diesen Fehler geschlossen wurde. Es ist komplett weg. Weder im Papierkorb noch irgendwo anders ist es auffindbar. Das bedeutet also, dass alle Daten eines Kurses von Jahren komplett weg waren. Die einzige Möglichkeit war das iPad komplett zurückzusetzen und aus einem Back-up wiederherzustellen. Heute ist das Problem schon wieder mit einer anderen Mappe aufgetreten. Für einen Lehrer und Dozenten, ein absolute Horrorvorstellung und für mich ein Grund , jetzt endgültig auf GoodNotes umzusteigen. Sowas kann und darf einfach nicht passieren!! Tschau, explain everything!

Make Lifetime Subscription One-time Purchase

I genuinely believe Explain Everything is one of the best and most powerful digital whiteboard tools available today. The features, flexibility, and overall polish are fantastic, making it indispensable for educators, creators, and professionals who need dynamic visual explanations.

The problem, however, lies in the pricing model. Requiring a mandatory annual subscription of $69 USD per year just for essential features like "unlimited notebooks" is an entry barrier that is too high for many, especially those who only need the app periodically or who are budget-conscious (like independent educators or students).

I urge the development team to seriously consider offering a one-time, perpetual license (or "lifetime purchase") option. While I understand the need for recurring revenue to support ongoing development, a high upfront cost to permanently unlock core power-user features like unlimited notebooks would be highly valued by your dedicated user base. This model would allow users who love the app but can't justify a recurring annual fee to invest in the tool permanently.

Thank you for building such a useful product. I hope you will introduce a more flexible pricing structure soon!
