Great idea, useful, but incomplete

This is a useful tool for those who struggle writing with pencil and paper. Having said that, it is an incomplete tool. It would be incredibly useful if it had the capability of writing with an Apple Pencil on the same document that you are using at the time. Yes, I can go to the “write” option, but then I will lose everything I write by hand if I try to return to my original document. I first have to save it onto a PDF document and at that point I am no longer able to use it at its original function.

A design similar to this one, with the option of typing on the grid or writing with a pencil on the same page is essential. Sadly, we are also unable to use the full keyboard, except when writing the title. I may need to type something but have limited letters to use (like only a, b, c, d, e, f, h, i, k, m, n, w, x, y and z). That is about it. So if you need to teach your child to write a complete answer to a question… like 7 lbs. or 50 miles/ hr, you are unable to do so. I often need to make notes during the lesson and cannot do so.

Again, I am grateful for this tool, but it takes extra work to make it usable. Not to mention the things we have to skip in order to use it. I would love to see some updates, but fear the creators have created it and are done with it.

Great

It helps her with homework so much I wold recommend it

Useful but wish it had more capabilities

My daughter has dysgraphia and finds this very useful, especially for long calculations or math problems. However, we both wish it had “Copy/Cut and Paste” capabilities similar to word/text processing programs, and that it was available for laptops and desktops, where she does all of her work.

Wish for a couple more features

Being able to use the keyboard to type on the “sheet” and/or be able to write with the apple pen, as needed would be so helpful. I am hoping this is in the works! Overall, I am very grateful for the product and design. It has changed my dysgraphic son’s approach to math. Just a few adjustments would make this perfect!

Worksheet import doesn’t work

Great idea for an app and something sorely missing for kids with additional support needs.

However, importing worksheets from a photo just doesn’t work. I have a screenshot of a worksheet and when I try to import it the screenshot is only a small partial piece of the full screenshot. The importer doesn’t allow any resizing, just taking an even smaller crop of the already small image.

Also, getting a normal keyboard up to just type in some instructions or information to help the student is missing.

Overall great idea just not the best execution at the moment. Would love the developers to fix this and make it useful and accessible. Otherwise it’s just frustrating to use for kids and parents who are desperately trying to learn maths and fighting for the right support for their kids.
