Ratings and reviews

At first i hated the app because how frustrating it is to use. But after a while i ended up liking it more than i expected. The app have many features that is needed to make a manga. But i was hoping in the future the app will be compatible with drawing tablet such as xp pen. Yes, there is pressure pen. But i would like it if i can use the buttons on my tab pen as the redo button similar with ibispaint. Unless... the IS a setting to enable such feature? Can't find it.

I love this app, I've used it for a few months now, I like the panel functions, brushes and the overall layout. I have used programs like procreate, ibis and Clipstudio but I prefer this one. I especially like the feel of the program while drawing and the brushes are really nice and it's not too overwhelming. Also the app provides extra materials like speech bubbles, sound effects and patterns and backgrounds. Also you can save things to the cloud and access on other devices even on a laptop.

this app is amazing. I really liked it. but already on the second use the application began to show strange glitches. which I will tell you about now. The first time the application didn't allow me to create a new manga, some kind of registration error occurred, even though I was registered. the second time, I clicked continue manga. and it directed me to the cover page where I was just starting to draw it. I couldn’t go to other pages or choose another manga.
