Tricked.

I didn’t want to buy a app which has no features and is not in English. How do I get a refund.

Awesome but there’s too many ads

Every time you push the save and delete button, it pops up an ad.

I don’t know what to title this 😅

It’s pretty good but I would prefer a better white board app but this is REALLY good if you have children

DONT DOWNLOAD!!!

So, I thought this was whiteboard fox, BUT NO. THEY LITERALLY JUST TRICKED ME. I WANTED TO DO A WHITEBOARD WITH MY FRIENDS, and guess what? You can’t do a color palette. There’s only a few colors available, and it needs more improvement, this is disappointing. And, I couldn’t even read Japanese and my settings was at English. PLEASE MAKE MORE IMPROVEMENTS. THIS IS REALLY ANNOYING. And also, these updates are just bug fixes :l nothing new. So that is why you should not buy this crazy ridiculous time wasting app. Good bye, peace.
