Please add Apple Pen support

I love sudoku, and not evil sudoku is perfect, except I cant’t write with my pen. I’d be willing to pay the one time fee for everything in the app if I can write my numbers in,,,

Great but missing key metric!

I love this app and play it nearly every day now. No muss no fuss no ads clean raw limitless sudoku madness! I have been in sudoku world only about 18 months now (I am 60) so a latecomer, and after watching many YouTube videos and spending months doing the picky pencil marks i am now rawdogging as the kids say using pure intuition and it IS WAY MORE FUN like this.I am consistently ranking in the top 100 world at the “hard” level, but I feel like a cheat! There is no sign or evidence how many mistakes I made! I could rank first and make 20 mistakes and no one would know! Even me, I don’t know for sure because I am racing along trying to finish in 4 minutes, or beat my personal best which is 3min38sec. So, whoever makes this game, please make it a tiny bit better, add a counter to it or build in some time penalty for mistakes, I really feel like an imposter ranking 38 in the world (your world, je sais) when I know I made 4-5 mistakes that game. I am a lousy cheater! I love you.
