Help

Please fix this app it pecks me out right away but this is the best beading app out there need it so bad

Is this still supported?

I’ve had this app for a few years. I don’t think this is supported anymore which is too bad. With some updates this would be a great app (think undo button). Please update!!!

Good

Good put glitches a lot, sometimes I can’t open the app withought it glitching back to my Home Screen.
Also wish there was an undo button for mistakes

Glitchy and will lose your progress

The app is a bit simple but would be fine for the price but it keeps randomly closing out on me. Even when I saved I lose some parts of the design. It’s impossible to use when the app keeps closing every 5 seconds. Would also love to see a fill tool for filling backgrounds. If the glitchiness gets fixed it the app would be fine and worth the price, but without that it doesn’t function.

With a few tweaks it could be perfect

I love this app! It makes my beading projects really easy. I would suggest making it so that when you press on a color the color wheel doesn’t pop up (it makes it tedious to switch between colors quickly which I do a lot when making beading patterns)

I would also suggest adding more colors options to the menu. I have a lot of bead colors and it would be awesome to be able to switch between colors easily.

All in all a really great app!
