### 3/5 — 便利です！

*2024-04-03, version 2.1.0*

昨日初めて利用しました。
まっすぐ書けない、連名で書く場合バランス良くおさめられないなど悩んでいましたが、こちらのアプリで解決しました。
操作が簡単で、なぞる際は画面をロックできるのでズレる心配がなく良かったです。
ただ、中袋裏面の住所部分が(うちの住所が長いようで)途中で切れてしまい、残りの部分は自力で書きました。
全て入り切るよう、その点が改善されましたらより助かります。

筆ペンで完全再現は難しいですが、まっすぐ文字の大きさを揃えて書けるだけでも綺麗に見えます。

### 5/5 — ありがたすぎるアプリ

*2022-11-30, version 1.6.3*

字が本当に下手で書き損じも多くて、親に書いてもらってたのが、このアプリでなんとか自分でも書けるようになった。
ロックして動かないようにできるのがのとてもよい。(ペイントアプリでも文字は出せるけど、書いてるうちに拡大されたり動いたりして難しい。)

中包は紙が二重になる分透かしづらかったので袋の中にスマホをいれてなぞったらなんとかいける笑
