### 1/5 — Not free

*2026-03-03, version 3.3.1*

This version only opens if you’ve previously purchased pro apparently.

### 5/5 — Like this

*2023-06-12, version 3.3.1*

I like this but why is it ages 4+ 4 year olds don’t know how to type

### 4/5 — Can’t be used in landscape.

*2021-01-09, version 3.3.1*

Otherwise great.

### 1/5 — Nothing inside this app

*2020-07-08, version 3.3.1*

This is empty..

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2016-09-28, version 3.3.1*

It does work, but it's usefulness is severely limited by its infrequent freezing (I'm using a 9.7 iPad Pro), and it's constant requests to upgrade to the full version. If i didn't find it so frustrating I might have upgraded!

### 5/5 — Pleased

*2016-08-14, version 3.3.1*

Great app. Always works when I need it.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2016-02-24, version 3.3.1*

Didn't work out of the box so I deleted it

### 3/5 — Good App, not excellent

*2015-11-01, version 3.3.1*

Free Version: Works only when you are logged in to an account. Does not work for User Account Control (UAC) pop ups (when your computer needs permissions). Mouse control is good, keyboard is good.

### 1/5 — This is not an app

*2015-10-05, version 3.3.1*

This is just a series of screenshots of another app that may or may not work as advertised.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2015-09-23, version 3.3.1*

Lite version does not do anything useful just show a picture to download go pro version.
