### 5/5 — Excellent app!

*2024-09-27*

I have been using this app for years and love it.  Its user friendly and wonderful to have in the classroom and therapy room.  Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Mrs L

*2023-10-10, version 4.7.1*

This App has been an absolute game changer for my daughter. She lacks the motor skills to write so the App has opened up so many possibilities and lessons for her. Thank you. I don’t know where we’d be now without it. I have also been incredibly impressed by the speed and understanding of customer service. A glitch on the App was reported and rectified by an update in under 24 hours with regular communication throughout.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-05-18*

Update (May18/23): App support has been very responsive. Fixed issues and had good communication through the whole experience.
Update (May 17/23): App support has been working with me to debug and may have resolved issues with upcoming update. Thanks. Will adjust my review again with newer release. Previously: It seems this new update (to introduce SnapType Pro 2) brings back some of the bugs reported years ago. It crashes when starting. It also deleted all my previous files as if I've never used SnapType before. After restarting my iPad (with latest iPadOS), app loads but only once. Device restart is required again. Repeats.

**Developer response:** Glad we could get this resolved for you! Thanks for your patience while founds the bugs.

### 3/5 — Great when it works!

*2022-01-13*

It’s a great tool when it actually works, but it crashes all the time. I bought it years ago and stopped using it because it was so frustrating. I just recently tried it again thinking they would have fixed the issue by now, but it’s doing the same thing!

**Developer response:** Hi. Please write to us at support@SnapTypeApp.com. Your app certainly shouldn't be crashing. Let's help you through it. Thanks!

### 4/5 — Alphabetical Order…

*2021-10-22*

Love SnapType!!! Just wondering if it would be possible to have the documents in alphabetical order or in the order they were uploaded… everything time I add a document, all my documents switch places. 😩

### 5/5 — Great app

*2021-09-08*

I love it features

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2021-07-24*

This program is so helpful for those with fine motor challenges or dysgraphia. It is very simple to use and is great at school and home.

### 2/5 — Fine I guess

*2021-05-25*

Glitchy and hard

**Developer response:** Hi. I know this reply is much delayed but if you're still interested in SnapType I would be keen to talk with you to learn about the challenges your facing and see what we can do to make the app better for you. support@SnapTypeApp.com. Thanks!

### 2/5 — It deletes everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*2021-04-07, version 4.6.5*

It keeps deleting all of my stuff

### 5/5 — Valuable tool

*2020-07-10*

I have been using SnapType Pro as a tool for my special education students for 3 years because it serves students with a wide range of abilities.  My students who can use a keyboard quickly learn how to independently snap a picture of their assignment and immediately start working just as their peers are doing.  My students who use AAC on an ipad for communication can compose each of their answers on their AAC app, hit ‘copy’, flip over to the SnapType app and paste it directly on the worksheet or whatever else the class is using.  Once completed, they hit ‘share’ and they email it to me or upload it into their Seesaw journal, Google drive, etc.  We are getting excellent technology like Chromebooks in the classroom now, but the ipad is always with us, whether we are working in the library or maybe outside in the garden, and there is no need to log in so we find it very helpful and convenient.
