I’ve been using it for the past year at school I had everything that I was looking for but unfortunately couldn’t sync to my window pc, I wish it was possible and it would improve the experience by a lot❤️
Very Buggy App
Oims123
They keep adding new features which is good but the bugs gets really frustrating to use at times. In order to draw geometric shapes curves or arrows you’re at the mercy of their recognition software so more often than not you have to make multiple attempts before it transforms it into what you wanted. Then at other times when it will randomly transform some a drawing into a shape when you didn’t want that. Hitting undo takes you back to before you drew anything and you have to start over. The text editor is also buggy. Sometimes it will skip a line for no reason and there is no way of fixing it. There is no support for subscript or superscript which is annoying for the subjects I’m studying it. One of the reasons I chose this app over others was because of the Math text feature but you can’t add these symbols to your regular text.Text boxes seem to have a life of their own and will change length. Then when you accidentally draw over them and move the box every thing will move with it and you have to patiently select and move the parts of the drawing that were over the text. Also when you fix spelling mistakes using apple recommendations the red line will not go away on its own.It randomly freezes at times or the toolbox stops working and you can’t switch tools. In these cases only way to fix it is to restart the app which makes me miss notes in class.
