### 1/5 — Downgrade!

*2023-04-24*

Purchased for one-time fee, found that it constantly locks up, requiring me to completely exit the app and come back in. Several features include proofreading, Markdown, and “look-up” feature now on the sidebar.  Found no synonym finder, as previous version had (version 4 look-up feature is excellent—5 stars for previous version!). Requested refund. Not recommended, as this is actually worse than TextKraft 4, unless it’s some type of “beta-version”.
