great app :3

What do I say because this app is amazing

To much ads

The app have way too many ads and subject you not to get it

DOSEN’T WORK

Opened up the app and couldn’t do anything, I could change the color I presume was the color if I could color, but other than that I couldn’t draw not one pixel, and there’s no information or anything when you open it up. I saw this app hasn’t been updated in 3 years so I doubt it’ll be updated anytime soon, to fix the issues, so in the meantime DOESN'T WORK save your time.

Ads destroy any potential of this app

You get a video ad every 10-30 seconds. Literally unusable because of the frequency of the ads.

Too many advertisements

I thought this would be a good app for making cross stitch patterns but it is not.

To get a 28x28 space to work in, you need to hit the + symbol several times. There is no indication that you have a 28x28 space so you have to manually count the squares and if an advertisement pops up, and there will be several of them in a very short amount of time, it will undo all the work you just put into it and you will have to start from the beginning.

Not worth the hassle.
