## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — It is terrible

*2014-07-27*

I hate it

### 1/5 — Types beyond the white space

*2014-02-15*

I can't start typing from the top and if I start typing then it won't return on the next line, but it continue to type beyond the work space.

### 1/5 — No good

*2013-08-27*

This app was clearly thrown together by a novice. The most egregious indication of this is that, as you draw more lines, the app will begin to lag very badly. Was there no usability testing performed on this at all?

### 1/5 — Are you kidding!?!?

*2011-06-08*

Is this a paid app with full color advertisements scrolling across the bottom?! App might be alright but I can't get over paying for an app and then getting treated to advertising when I use it.

### 1/5 — Current version has major bugs - waste of money

*2010-11-20*

It takes two taps to the screen on the trash can to invoke a delete image.

Also, when you start a new sketch, going into My Sketches will display the old sketch and not the new blank sketch.  This is no matter how many times you select the new blank sketch.

Emailed the developer and he still has not fixed the bug, I guess he doesn't care.  There are definitely better apps out there such as Penultimate.  This app is definitely a pass and not even worth the 99 cents.

Too many bugs, possibly released too soon.  Will update review, if product quality improves.

I think the only person to give it a positive review probably got a free code from the dev.

### 2/5 — A 10% done product!

*2015-06-03*

Could be a great and useful app, but almost nothing works. Why so early? It's suicide

### 2/5 — First time used

*2014-01-07*

I used it for the first time the other day. Was checking prices in stores. When I got home it was gone? I will try again.

### 2/5 — Scratchpad

*2010-11-23*

Crashes every time with the update

### 3/5 — Eh

*2013-10-15*

It's a nice idea, but not well put together.

### 3/5 — It's ok, but needs work to improve.

*2012-03-24*

Needs a designated area on the bottom of page so that you don't have to "float" hand above the iPad to write.

## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Practically unusable

*2015-09-07*

The pad is so small that there's not enough space to sketch or write much. For a quick text note it may be useful, but the built in notes app is much better for that.

### 5/5 — I like it,,

*2011-12-29*

I luv that I can quickly jot down notes  or mk a quick sketch. It's simple and perfect. Also the fact that I can quickly email it makes it very useful for me. I also have a stylus for my iPad so it works hand in hand with this app... Kudos

### 5/5 — Good APP

*2010-05-17*

I was looking for an app that I could quickly and easily scratch notes down with my finger on the screen versus typing them.  I found it with this app. 

It's worth the .99 if you have a use for it.
