### 1/5 — 不能調節鍵盤高度

*2023-08-10*

手寫板高度不能調節，書寫範圍太窄。

**Developer response:** 親愛的顧客您好，謝謝您的回饋，我們會反應給相關部門及產品經理請他們評估調整書寫範圍，蒙恬科技會持續提供更好的操作使用和服務，感謝您的支持。

### 1/5 — Was in the middle of writing something...

*2020-10-15, version 1.0.0*

This app is poorly designed. I was in the middle of writing something, but then it said I had to buy it for more. That’s not a very nice way to earn money because I, for one, do not want to buy a “free” app!

### 1/5 — Limited number of characters

*2020-02-28, version 1.0.0*

Works fine, but you’ll be in the middle of writing something and then it will say “give money or no more”

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2016-09-17, version 1.0.0*

If you buy the PenPower Stylus ($39.95). this free app is included. After product registration, an upgrade to the PenPower Handwriting Input app ($9.99) is supposed occur. Thus, full features of handwriting recognition is available. It never happens. Also, touching the app'sy screen icon sends one to the setting screen. The only way out is the Home Button. And, keyboard and Manual (setting options) are in Chinese only.
Thus, the app does not work with the Stylus. It does have precision, but others work equal. The Stylus needs AAA battery power. Without power it does not work. Last, the PenPower apps require the special Stylus to work. But, if one has the Stylus, then the apps do not work. Save money & time: do not get these products. I'll be getting a Stylus return refund from Fry's Electronics. Good thing I did not buy online!

### 1/5 — Save your money and time

*2016-06-09, version 1.0.0*

I bough this app as it was supposed to work with the stylist I purchased at Fry's electronics. NOT THE CASE, I can't get out of the menu in the app their is no exit button!! Also the stylist doesn't work that well if at all on occasion. I've tried it in about three different apps with dismal results in all three. But not the app it comes with as I can't get out of the menu😁

### 2/5 — Mainly for chinese

*2016-01-23, version 1.0.0*

Not fully developed for USA yet!
