Please solve it and ur app is a 5 star one. Also the background pallettes once opened can not be closed without closing the app. ### 2/5 — Great app but.. *2018-03-31* It’s awesome! Exactly what you want but when you save a drawing for later and then go back to it, the app draws all over it. It’s like a glitch and you can get rid of it. It’s super annoying especially when it’s a good drawing and it messed it up ### 3/5 — 🤔 *2018-01-06, version 4.1.1* This app is very useful but every time I press the button to go to all my drawings and then go back onto it, I find there are random doodles all over the page?! Also, one time my drawing had completely moved off centre. Please fix ### 4/5 — It freezes up when attempting to Chang background *2018-01-03, version 4.1.1* So when I was drawing I tried to change the background but it froze on me and I have to exit out and re-load the app ### 1/5 — Shutting down *2017-09-25, version 4.0* Its amazing the mirroring the colours the brush but when i take my time finishing it freezes then erases what ive been working on for half an hour do not buy . . . ### 3/5 — Shutting down *2017-02-26, version 3.5* Please fix your app ! I have deleted and re-downloaded app twice, and it messes up my purchases on the colors I bought .Pleeze Fix ### 1/5 — Keep crashing *2017-01-29, version 3.5* Not working properly ### 3/5 — Amazing App, Frustrating Glitches *2017-01-17, version 3.5* This app is such an awesome concept, and the designs are gorgeous. However, after about five minutes of use it begins to freeze up and everything is delayed. It makes it very difficult to gauge whether Swirly is not responding to your gestures or if it is just not keeping up. I am also using this on the iPad Pro with the Apple Pencil and the latest software update, and once I close the app everything starts working properly again, so I feel like it's not a hardware problem. ### 1/5 — Purchases gone *2016-11-01, version 3.3* When I came back on the app all my purchases were gone! ### 1/5 — Useless without Facebook *2016-04-27, version 3.1* I don't have or want Facebook, so this was an immediate app delete for me. ### 3/5 — Great app *2016-02-06, version 2.0.3* I like this app and it is very easy to use It is useful for me ### 4/5 — Abdul mufeed review *2016-01-18, version 2.0.3* Nice design app ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Un peu brouillon *2019-07-31, version 4.1.1* - Complètement bugué (le sélecteur de background sur iOS12 rend ensuite l’app inutilisable) - Ne dessine pas en vectoriel - Ne supporte pas l’Apple pencil sur iPad ### 1/5 — Awful app, don’t bother. *2019-06-04, version 4.1.1* Sure the app acts as though it’s working well, till you save. Once you open the file back up you’ll be presented with your hard work trashed and covered in random scribbles that you cannot undo. This was an absolute waste of time and energy for me and I highly suggest people avoid this app so they don’t go through the same level of grief. ### 1/5 — Do not damload *2019-02-12, version 4.1.1* Once you’ve damloded this app on iOS it won’t let you uninstall the app if anyone knows how please reply it will help me a lot. YouTube videos have not helped please help me? ### 1/5 — Trop de lag *2019-01-06, version 4.1.1* iPad 4, iPhone 7 semblent pas assez puissant pour gérer cette simple app de dessin... dommage ### 1/5 — Buggy *2019-01-03, version 4.1.1* This game is really buggy bc when i tried to switch colors it kept the same screen from before and just made it hard to change. Do not buy! ### 1/5 — Too glitchy *2019-01-02, version 4.1.1* Whenever I try to change the background the color selection stays up on the screen and freezes. So please get an update that fixes that. If they did it would be a five star rating ### 1/5 — Doesn’t save properly! *2019-01-02, version 4.1.1* I made these really cool drawings then I saved it and I opened the app back up it was all messed up! Plus I can never change the background ### 1/5 — A fun idea, but too buggy to be useful *2018-09-29, version 4.1.1* This app is fun to play with, but too buggy to spend any meaningful time with. Stray lines appear after saving, and the app locks up when trying to undo. ### 1/5 — Freezes on brush color *2018-05-18, version 4.1.1* Looks like a promising creative app, but I will NOT join Facebook to use it. Wake up! There are countless number of people who will not join Facebook, and dare I say will not join Twitter. ### 1/5 — Crashes on opening *2018-01-14, version 4.1.1* Worked for a while, now it crashes whenever I open it. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — The background glitch *2018-11-14, version 4.1.1* When I go on to change the background,it freezes and I have to reload my iPad ### 5/5 — Simple but powerful! *2016-06-13, version 3.2* Great app. Could even be better with layers. ### 5/5 — super fun and great app *2016-01-18, version 2.0.3* amazing ### 5/5 — Très bien *2016-01-18, version 2.0.3* Un peu frustrée de ne pouvoir accéder à toutes les couleurs gratuitement mais il faut bien qu'ils gagnent leur vie et on a déjà beaucoup de couleurs gratuites. Différents genres de crayons, différentes largeurs de crayons, plein de couleurs dispo, différents fonds. ### 5/5 — This is a beautiful app *2016-01-18, version 2.0.3* I hope everyone try this app as well .

Essayez de leur passer cette app quelques temps avant de se mettre au travail. Ils seront plus posés! Effet calmant. ### 5/5 — Excellent. *2016-01-18, version 2.0.3* Cette app est reposante.
