Needs some critical features

Nice job of summarizing posters. Needs ability to zoom in on images. Users can not easily view data or poster images. Would also be nice to add my own notes

Response from developer

Thank you for the thoughtful feedback - you highlighted some really important gaps. I’ve since updated PosterLens to include pinch-to-zoom on poster images and note-taking, plus a number of other improvements including iCloud sync, a searchable poster library, offline capture, and enhanced PDF exports. Thanks again for helping make PosterLens better.
