  1. 1/5Why do I have to pay to just practice drawing?

    Can you please explain me why I have to pay for a week trial just to draw, it keeps appearing that I have to pay to draw and it doesn’t make sense, I am very sorry but I don’t like this app.

  2. 3/5I can’t use it!

    It seems like this would be a great app, if I could try it out I might know, but this leads me to my point, You can’t do anything without becoming “pro”! I mean, it’s not even actually pro E cause there is no free options,
