Junk

This does not work.

Terrible app

I downloaded this to work on patterns which require squared paper and this is useless. It doesn’t allow me to actually work within the squares so a total waste of money.

Clunky and difficult to use.

I wanted to use it to graph pictures by colour blocking the squares. No such luck, just too clunky to use.

Waste of money!

Don’t bother with this. I wanted a simple gridded β€˜graph paper’ on my ipad, that i could manually plot data points; this seemed the answer, the only app that seemed to be a drawing app, including a graph grid. The grid has snaps, that snap beautifully to the intersections on the horizontal axis, but only snap OFF the intersections on the vertical axis. Terribly frustrating. Also won’t let you hand write text or figures (using Apple pen) even when on free form lines; keeps zapping off in all directions. Painful eraser tool, imprecise and unreliable, picks up some lines but not others. Disappointing, and a rip off.

Used to be good...

I really liked the simplicity of this app when I first got it, but each update seems to mess it up more. Now I can't even get the cursor to start ON a grid line. Very frustrating.
