PLEASE FIX THE ZOOM-OUT!!!

I use this app EVERYDAY for work. This is a GREAT app... BUT when your typing in a text box, the more you type the more it zooms out. This makes it very hard to edit when you can't read the text, and I have very good vision.

Landscape would also be an awesome addition. I bought a stylus to use with this app but it's too hard to write in portrait so I just click on the keyboard. Also, there needs to be a blind to pull up from the bottom so you don't select the buttons when your hands resting on the phone.

Everything else seems to work great, with a couple little buggy exceptions like when I open the app from the lock screen the screen goes back to black then I click the home button again and the screen comes back and the app closes and I have to re open it again. Not a huge problem though, it only happens occasionally and probably has to do with iPhone OS. And sometimes when opening the app it will goto a new untitled book and when you click back to books it disappears.

I have had this app for a few months now and it's awesome to have ALL your notes in one app. No need to carry a pad of paper and a pen anymore! Thanks for working hard to make this app so great, it's came a long way!

Great Sketchnoting App for the IPAD...

Wonderful app for sketchnoting. Dropbox support, a selection tool that lets you select ANYTHING and resize, move, cut and paste as well as intuitive controls for pen size and color adjustment is wonderful. This app also has one of the smoothest handwriting gesturing, much like penultimate however beats it with the multitude of other features including almost an incredible pinch and zoom as well as the ability to import pics into your sketchnotes. I feel as though some the low ratings by a few others are not warranted. This is a great app and with the responsiveness I have seen thus far from the developers, I am sure will be one the best in this field. Having said that, on my wishlist for this app will be: 1. improvements in the use of the palm with this app, 2. the ability to create a pens w predefined colors and sizes and 3. the ability to have gesture enabled zoom modes for a) Fit page to window and b) last zoom mode. This is a feature I really like in the brushes app. To wrap up...my recommendation: this is a keeper.
