4/5Getting better
Thank you for listening to my feedback, definitely improved my experience, but there’s still a few things I would like to see, first I would like to have a eraser size smaller than 5 for more accurate erasing. The zooming feature is a bit janky as sometimes it doesn’t respond that well or the drawing goes out of focus and I can’t drag it back. I’ve also noticed that when you press the undo button enough times when you mess up it kind of blurs the lines that were already on the drawing. Lastly what happened to the delete button for the saved sketches?

4/5Cool app, but couple bugs
The tracing functionality is simple to use and works well. There seems to be a strange bug using on my iPad Pro. When selecting brushes only a few display. All are selectable, but most of the selection area is just black and I sort of have to guess at which I’m selecting. A similar issue when trying to delete a tracing, the option to duplicate shows up, but not delete. By tapping the other side of the screen I was able to delete, but had to guess where the button was. Works great other than that and those issues are able to be worked around, just odd.

4/5Pretty good
Like the ease of using the pen and being able to enlarge or make smaller. Also ease of opacity helps when you can see what you have done without the image showing through! GreaT! Would like option for a plain background (just white) so you can create your own if desired. And where the drawing is blank the background should not show through unless desired. Perhaps a paint fill pot would help with that. I was sketching a person with jacket on and did not want background to show through. You have a great opportunity with this app. I would pay for the above changes easily it’s worth more! Good luck!

4/5Great
Love this apps. When a specific color I came up with and used has already been pushed out of the recent list, I find it hard get to that exact color when I want to edit or touch up later. Is there a way around this? Thanks. Great apps

5/5Best app EVER
I was looking for an app to trace pictures online and I came across this app! Every thing is great except the colors it is very hard to make light brown and gray. Over all is a great app for beginners. It did not take that long for me to know how everything works!
