Useless

No wonder this thing is only 5 bucks.
I bought this with fade in pro for windows so i can work on my phone while im out of the house.
Files do NOT sync not to mention typing is lagged.
Should just stick to the windows version on my computer. A waste of money.

Junk

I would write one scene each time i sat down, and recently realized it was only saving half of what i did. Complete garbage and a waste of time. So frustrating

Unusable?

I’ve been using the desktop version for years i’m a huge fan of that version, but this version is nearly completely broken freezing constantly

This app is so so so so bad

This fade in app probably the worst app I’ve ever endured on iPhone. It’s buggy. The settings you press don’t work. It picks and chooses when it wants to do the operation you have. It’s shameful that I paid for this and my money was taken. Stay away.
