My data was lost PART 2

I duplicated the project that I had lost my progress on and now things save. But my original progress is still lost. Please try and fix this bug.

Default colors

Would it be possible to add my own custom color set to use as default in new projects?

Terrible, STAY AWAY FROM THIS APP!

At first this was a great app, after a bit of use though a bunch of my images were deleted from the app. If they weren’t deleted they would change. Plus, the redo and undo button are extremely buggy. Lastly, whenever I attempted to hide or reveal a layer it would reveal or hide other layers that I did not intend to hide. Overall, a decent app but it’s very buggy.

Edit: This is not a one time bug, I recently just lost 3-5 hours worth of work. STAY AWAY!
