### 5/5 — Super

*2026-07-01, version 3.5.1*

Die App gefällt mir sehr gut. 
Der Preis ist angemessen. 
Bei den Einstellungen kann 
man leider keine Sprache 
auswählen wie beim iPad. 
Ein Upgrade wäre sehr zu 
wünschen. 
Vielen Dank.

### 1/5 — Crap!

*2022-08-05, version 3.5.1*

I have the free version which works great. It’s the best typewriter apps out there! I should know, I tried all of them and am a published kindle author and thus is how I write all of my first drafts. 
Until recently it did not have the white bar on the bottom. So when I tried to see what I had to do in order to remove said annoying bar, I found this for $2. This new piece of crap even in full screen mode isn’t full screen. Until it is, I can deal with the annoying white bar. 

It didn’t even transfer my other papers. 

I want my money back!

### 3/5 — Urge ACTUALIZAR

*2017-07-11, version 3.1.2*

Clásica 100% me gusta, por qué solo funciona HORIZONTAL ???
si no la van a actualizar POR QUÉ LA VENDEN ??? podría tener 5 ESTRELLAS...

### 5/5 — Best looking typewriter

*2016-12-06, version 3.1.2*

This is the best looking typewriter app for iPhone and it's free.

### 5/5 — Fantastica!!! 😂

*2016-11-06, version 3.1.2*

Molto carina per chi, come me, ama le vecchie macchine da scrivere. Ti lascia anche salvare quello che scrivi come immagini.
L'unica cosa, che non so se è un errore o se erano davvero così le vecchie macchine da scrivere, è il fatto che quando arrivi a fine righa suana prima di raggiungere il margine giusto rispetto al margine di sinistra. 😁 Se potere risolvere, bene, se no mi terrò a mente di quanti caratteri posso scrivere in più dopo il suono.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2016-10-18, version 3.1.2*

Poor quality

### 5/5 — very good

*2015-07-26, version 3.1.2*

まるで本物のタイプライターで打っている感覚になれる、とても面白い。しかも打ちやすく操作しやすい。ただ、Bluetoothも使えるメリットがあるから、その場面ではキーボードは出さなくてもいい感じはした。Bluetooth使えるってのはほんと便利。
androidで出してくれたら有料でも即買いますね、これは。是非出して欲しいなぁ。

### 5/5 — La ññññññññññññ

*2014-11-06, version 3.1.2*

Dios mío, escribe igual que una maquina con su sonido a tecla y todo.
Yo que aprendí a escribir en una maquina de estas con dos dedos... no vea que sensación.!
Falta idioma español, ya que no tiene Ñ ni acento.
Con estas dos cosas pago por esta app.

### 5/5 — i need

*2014-06-27, version 3.1.2*

copy and paste :-(

### 5/5 — 喜欢复古的感觉

*2014-04-25*

很喜欢打字机的方式，有5、60年代的感觉。可是没有中文，有小小的遗憾
