Overall great app. For some reason on Samsung Tablet using the S-pen button to erase does not work on this app like it does other apps.

Some apps are so good and big that are in another level compared to other apps. And "I believe" these apps must be 90% FREE. I loved everything from this app and I'd always even dreamed about such an app. However, having to pay for this app, is like having to pay for Google, YouTube or Google Sheets! I can't even add a second slide in the free plan! I beg to disagree with your commercial model. I believe 90% of the features must be free and only the other professional 10% must be paid for.

We're sorry to hear that! Our Free Plan does have some limitations, but it permits users to try out all the project editing features without a subscription. It allows you to create 3 projects, with 1 slide and 1 minute of recording. You can compare the features of a subscription and a free plan here: https://explaineverything.com/pricing

Basically it's a good concept, but both the finger button ( to pan and zoom) and the zoom tool itself are not working well! And only one slide is allowed for free... I think at least 2 to 3 slides could be allowed for free so the customer can see how transition works between slides and if he find this as an interesting reason or not to buy a plan.
