### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-08-12*

This app is the best! The developer thought of everything!!! I’m so grateful! Thank you!!!!!

### 4/5 — 很有趣

*2025-09-23*

前幾天在脆上滑到就下載了，很有趣！希望在下一個字那行可以調整大一點有點看不到。也希望可以有更換筆粗細的選項以及調整已寫字的那欄的大小，另外就是每日更新時間非常奇怪⋯已經過了晚上12點卻還是保存著前一天的書寫紀錄，然後現在其實是下午一點三十九分依然還是前一天的書寫紀錄，請告訴我它換日時間我前一天早上其實寫了一千字的🥲

**Developer response:** 謝謝您的建議，預覽的部分會再優化，至於後續兩個建議都已經有更新上去囉（更換筆粗細的選項以及調整已寫字的那欄的大小）
至於每日更新時間的問題也已經修正了
感謝您耐心的留言建議！
