Horrible

This app sucks it won't show my messages on my widget and everytime it starts loading and won't stop

App is broken

The apps been abandoned for a while now. Now it’s completely unusable. None of the tools work :(

Update made it worse

This new update made a perfectly good app unusable. My boyfriend and I use this app for goodnight doodles and it was working fine until they updated it. It has the following issues: if you press undo it makes it so your doodle doesn’t show up 2. Sometimes when you press undo the app crashes 3. when you select a color it doesn’t show up half the time 4. You cannot zoom in anymore 5. The erase option is gone. This “update” destroyed the app and we will be using another one

Does not update on bf’s iphone 15 pro max

It kinda defeats the purpose of the app to not have the notes show on his home screen. We did try deleting the widget itself and reinstalling but it didn’t work. Please advise how to update it!

New update

The new update basically made it 10x harder to make a nice drawing by removing the ability to zoom in on the drawing and the eyedropper not being being applied to the drawing itself. Makes it much harder to make anything of use.
