Problem with new version

This program used to work perfectly and now just the first screen comes on and closes. I am on an iPad mini, I would appreciate an answer to this problem as I cannot use it at all. Thanks

Hi wizzard, There is a Problem with this version and older devices like the iPad 2. I did not realise this before the release, sorry. I am working on a solution, that will be part of the next release. Please contact me directly through the science-to-touch.com website for an intermediate personalized solution. ThX Jürgen

One word: brilliant

I work in a pastoral role in primary schools and have a number of apps that grab student attention. This is one of the best. Those for whom I do a quick first time demonstration, without fail the response is, “Wow!” And as they get used to the basics, they discover, “But wait, there’s more!” Thank you.

So incredibly frustrating

The tools are not easy to navigate. I’d love to see a colour fill option. If there is one I have yet to find it. Snapping shapes to straight lines, arcs, circles etc would be useful. I think I’ll stick to procreate. I have yet to find where you import your images. And yes I have gone through tutorial. Potentially a brilliant app but not intuitive and so not worth the investment in my opinion
