No thanks

It’s good if you love ads but if you have no Apple Pencil then you can’t play bro so suit your self. sincerely me.
Hi.i.review.Hi.i.review.

Why it loses a point but is still really good

This is a really good app it is just SURPER REALY delayed and when I try to draw it will not work most of the time so it kind of makes me frustrated so that is why not 5 stars but 4 stars so over all it is a good app though 😊
