First of all: its fun! Starting at the age of four kids can dive into joyful and creative play for hours. Playing in iOrnament is a creative and satisfying experience starting from the very first stroke. Vivid color palettes, glitter, gold, mandalas, varieties of shapes, and much more offer an endless playground of discovery. And while playing children learn basics about the maths of symmetry.

Mr Finger ,

Great Upgrade!

This App has a very educational interactive tutorial on wallpaper groups which is the whole basis behind the pure mathematical beauty of this app. These creations are as simple as a reflection of a single vector or as complex as ones imagination can create based solely on your input. These ornaments are all 100% created by the user, every stroke or touch is recorded from start to finish. The latest upgrades open up a whole new toy box of tools with new ways to manipulate and enhance your creations. My favourite toys are the fill effects and the pencil box where you can save your favourite pens. There is also some new tools for adding images ! I recommend this app for anyone of any age!

Review

I love this app so much.

Disheartening

The first version (pink background) works flawlessly! The new pro version is buggy. I contacted the developer letting them know the tile save function is not working for all symmetries and the did reply but it’s still not fixed. Unable to leave the app and then open it again and continue with a design as it then loads wrong (design is skewed and colours are off with inability to change it in the settings...ie. background now is pink and no way to change it. Using design mode and adding a single design the the existing design puts it on a new layer and won’t work when you go back to the original symmetry. Once design is saved it rarely reloads properly. Due to these instabilities it’s pretty much become useless. Tried reinstalling and same thing plus I lost any designs that were working in the process.
Hope these are fixed soon as I would like to start using it again for my design work.
The ability to save in larger formats would be a huge bonus, but please fix the other things first.
