### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2021-05-15, version 2.5.6*

First time using this app and right off the bat tracing the on screen characters don’t work well at all. I trace them fast, slow, carefully….doesn’t matter. I find myself tracing one character multiple times before the app decides that I traced it correctly. Annoying. Fix this. Or not. I don’t care as I won’t be downloading this app again.
