User reviews

Beat App but...

... but Adobe sign-in using Apple ID is not supported. A major flaw for me. And yes, I’m working as a typographer since 1996.

Little learning

The „learning typography“ part is highly overstressed. Defining typographic vocabulary is not „learning typography“. Not worth the money.

Five stars, ideal privacy policy

This app works as described and the developer chooses not to collect any personal data for themselves or their affiliates. After reading the single paragraph, I was so happy to read their policy I nearly cried.

Previously, I've agreed to fork over my data to Adobe, so that's on me.
