So Great for Zoom Meetings

What a great app. I have to do a lot of pitching at various Zoom meetings, and it’s so nice to be able to put a document into this app and look straight at the screen, and at the people I’m pitching to, while I am pitching an idea or a project. No more looking down at my notes, losing my place, being distracted!

Useless

The app advertises itself as being a transparent overlay for notes, but on mobile it literally just becomes a widget and doesn’t do what it says it does

Incorrect Billing

I canceled my monthly plan 5 days before it was due to renew, and now the app is forcing me to pay for a new renewal for NO REASON. My SUBSCRIPTION IS CANCELED!
