### 4/5 — Actually a great app

*2026-01-25*

I use this quite a bit. It’s buggy, I would guess it’s because it hasn’t been updated through all the iPhone updates. Sometimes it can lock up and hang or just randomly shuts down. 
I don’t try save projects, that generally just kills the app, just save the adjusted image. And if it hangs I’ll just restart and it works no problem. Other than that, it has some great options. Lost a stars for the buggy bits.

### 2/5 — Won’t Load!

*2025-07-27, version 1.9*

I can’t get it to get out of the loading screen. I have used this app in the past & loved it but now it’s useless.

### 4/5 — App originale...

*2024-09-22, version 1.9*

purtroppo non si apre più! È stata abbandonata dagli sviluppatori?

### 3/5 — Loved this app but…

*2024-05-28*

Loved the app but they are unfortunately not updating it any longer. Still hoping otherwise they are a solid 5*.

### 2/5 — Parou de atualizar

*2024-03-29*

Espero que voltem, pois era um aplicativo muito bom. Agora ele só fecha

### 2/5 — 起動が遅い

*2023-11-20*

機能は好きなのに、動きが遅くすぐ開かない

### 2/5 — Probably one of the worst

*2022-10-21*

Has potential to do good but unfortunately whenever you save a text because it doesn’t let you to do multiple at a time when you come back in and use the frame it somehow doesn’t write anymore it doesn’t work anymore you would have to quit the app multiple times I’m over closing and coming back probably the worst purchase I ever made

### 2/5 — Na ja

*2022-07-22*

Nette App, jedoch lassen sich keine Schriften installieren oder deinstallieren. Von daher für mich unbrauchbar.

### 5/5 — No longer works

*2022-01-11*

Hasn’t been updated for seven years. It now crashes on start up - at least for me.

### 5/5 — Path On…

*2021-12-17*

I previously gave us app a three 🌟🌟🌟star rating because it would not work on my iPhone 12 pro max. As of this writing the app suddenly started working so I’m revising my rating from three stars to definitely five stars. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

### 1/5 — Que tenga que pagar

*2025-05-22, version 1.9*

Que tenga que pagar para ver cómo funciona y ver qué va tan lento. Se queda bloqueado a cada rato. Es una pena. Además es tan limitada la aplicación. Creo que no se debería pagar. Si quieren cobrar que no la hagan tan básica e ilimitada

### 1/5 — Abandoned by developer

*2023-02-15, version 1.9*

Crashes on launch screen

### 1/5 — Parou de abrir

Infelizmente não atualizaram o app, logo não consegue abrir com o novo iOS.

### 1/5 — not working

*2023-01-03, version 1.9*

### 1/5 — Help !

*2022-11-13, version 1.9*

App doesn’t work

### 1/5 — dont download

*2022-02-10, version 1.9*

### 1/5 — Parou de funcionar

*2022-01-10*

Ele funcionava bem e era um aplicativo bem bacana,  mas parece que deixou de ser atualizado e agora nem sequer abre.

### 1/5 — Não abre

*2021-12-22*

Não abre no iOS 15.2 quero meu dinheiro de volta

### 1/5 — aspetto rimborso

*2021-12-20, version 1.9*

non va

### 1/5 — Seria ótimo se funcionasse!

*2021-07-27*

Paguei, e não vi nada mais do que a tela de abertura, seja no meu iPhone XR ou no meu iPad Air 2.

Pude perceber que outros usuários reclamam da mesma coisa, e há algum tempo, ao que parece sem qualquer ação do desenvolvedor para solucionar o problema.

Como resgato meu dinheiro de volta?

### 5/5 — Problem!

I used to love this app. I still would if it didn’t crash every time I try to open my keyboard to type along a path on my iPad Pro. Please help.

*2023-04-23, version 1.9*

Outstanding  👍👍👍👍😘👍👍👍👍

### 5/5 — It took me a while to buy

*2022-05-27*

Wished I had bought it earlier. The problems in the comments and feedback? I have none of them. The only thing I would want is to have alternating colors for the text. But hey, I do have another app that has that option.

### 5/5 — Tolle Ergebnisse und keine Probleme 2022

*2022-05-24*

Die App funktioniert auf dem iPad Air2 mit IOS 15 problemlos. Gekauft im Mai 2022. Sie reagiert beim Laden etwas träge, aber dann lassen sich Photos laden oder mit der Kamera eines hinzufügen. Es gibt viele Einstellungen und am Ende lässt sich nicht nur das fertige Bild, sondern auch das Projekt speichern. Allerdings stürzt beim Speichern des Projektes die App manchmal ab. Die Schrift entlang der Kurve, passt sich in der Auflösung an die Auflösung des Fotos an. Bedeutet, dass das gespeicherte Ergebnis die Größe behält, die das Bildmaterial zuvor hatte. Die Filter sind auch super. Beim ersten Starten der App, poppte auch das Fenster auf, in dem man den Zugriff auf die Bibliothek gewähren muss, um auf die Fotos zugreifen zu können. Ich fände es schön, wenn die App weiter entwickelt werden würde. Seit ein paar Jahren, ist das wohl nichts mehr passiert. Die Ergebnisse sind aber auch so toll.
