### 2/5 — Some limitations

*2026-07-13, version 1.0.3*

Thanks for the app. On iPhone 16 pro. I can’t zoom out enough to see the whole drawing. The tools hide the menu items on the bottom and I can’t figure out how to hide them to access the menu.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2025-10-29, version 1.0.3*

Can’t zoom

### 5/5 — Best App Ever

*2025-08-02, version 1.0.3*

I use this app as scratch paper while i’m doing my math homework or studying math. It’s perfect for me. I haven’t had any problems with it. It’s so simple and sleek that I prefer to use it over paper. It also reduces the amount of paper I waste. I think the only downside would be if you didn’t have a sort of pencil for ipad.

### 4/5 — It just crash

*2025-05-24, version 1.0.3*

Please fix it.

### 4/5 — Won’t open

*2025-02-12, version 1.0.3*

This app worked great for me for years until now 2024

### 1/5 — Judy

*2025-01-24, version 1.0.3*

Where did all my notes go?

### 1/5 — Zoom out option please

*2024-12-28, version 1.0.3*

Very minimalistic and serves it's purpose but it would be more useful if you could zoom out and scroll upwards.

### 1/5 — Zoom yeah right

*2024-08-21, version 1.0.3*

So I was excited to get a lot of zoom but go to free form and you get more zoom and get white paper this app is crap so little utensils going to hate having this app beware this app is terrible for any users wanting to get it.

### 5/5 — The app preview said it all

*2024-06-01, version 1.0.3*

This app is pretty much a 'doodle on graph paper'.  If Notes were to have a grid mode, it would look like this app.  Simple and free, no ads, no pop ups, no reminders to upgrade to a paid version.  Thank you for developing this app.

### 1/5 — Stupid color choice

*2024-03-08, version 1.0.3*

I just wasted 2 hours using this app. The background when drawing is black, not sure if it’s based off the dark preference on my iPad settings or they want to ruin what you’re trying to do, after 2 hours of drawing an equipment layout wiring diagram I go to save it and it changes the background to white. Every appliance shape was using white because black on black would make no sense at all and not be visible whatsoever. I can’t find any settings to make this change either one. It was now a complete wash as 70% of the lines were white.
