Ratings and reviews

This app used to be the best thing ever. I even paid to have the full version assit was so good. But for some reason its now it's extremly slow and it randomly deletes my progress. It won't always let me have as many layers as I want. It takes forever to load and when it does work its only for a short period of time... A huge bug fix would be nice. Thank you

I paid for the Pro version a while back. For drawing on a Tablet, it was the best I found at the time (personal preference of course). It has almost everything I want, it just lacks an "Insert Text" Tool. Why is it so hard to find Apps that "complete" or well-rounded. This just seems like such a basic function, and that's the only missing piece of the puzzle.

PSA: There exists a bug where you can lose your projects very easily. Make sure to back up regularly. Brush options are great. One of the few drawing apps that are designed with an s22 or s23 ultra in mind, because the UI is smaller and more useable than the others I've used. Decent selection of options when it comes to layer blending and effects. Layers are limited to 20. Which really sucks.
