### 1/5 — Horrible, terrible, unreliable

*2024-10-28*

I can't even think of something good to say about this app. It is poorly made, with barely no useful features for customization or editing. Next to nothing tools for anything. App interface is an eyesore and painfully ugly to look at. I barely lasted 5 minutes before deleting it. Not worth wasting any time or storage space.

### 1/5 — Junk app

*2024-08-30*

User beware. It’s junk.

### 2/5 — I mean it’s ok

*2021-05-15, version 2.3*

It’s ok but there isn’t really much to say it’s just drawing and sketching things

### 4/5 — Its alright

*2020-07-11, version 2.3*

If you get to know how to use it, it’s good, but at the start it was quite bad

### 4/5 — Seems like a good app

*2019-06-11*

Just downloaded this to use with my new fine point stylus and it seems to do very well so far.  Has options for line size, ink color but sure about note color. Also don’t see any lined paper but I haven’t used it a lot. I didn’t like the default little pencil icon that was on it when I started writing but there’s an option to turn that off. If you have a stylus, give this a try. You might like it.

### 3/5 — Decent for a few things

*2018-11-09*

For an older app that allows you to write on the iPad it’s not bad it’s never going to replace oldschool pen and paper.

But if you’re putting a grocery list together or you’re trying to maybe get some notes for ideas for a party and you forgot your pen and paper this is a decent little product for what it’s worth

### 4/5 — Simple and great writing!

*2018-04-06*

As for me, I prefer not to have a pen following my finger writing. I can't control the size of letters. But all the other aspects are great. Thank you for making this app!
I appreciate a lot.

### 1/5 — Not Reliable

*2018-01-26*

The application is simply not reliable. I am constantly losing information stored on individual notes even though I meticulously name and save my notes after every entry. Very frustrating to say the least.

### 4/5 — Good

*2016-07-29, version 2.0*

Jonnyrollocks1 there is a trash can symbol to delete

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2016-05-10, version 2.0*

Only 3 stars, it is a decent app but there doesn't appear to be any way to delete unwanted notes
